Male Eclectus - Consistant Regurgitation

[laurendelfing]

A little over a week ago, I brought home a consignment male eclectus between the ages of 3-6. I noticed from the beginning that he regurgitates frequently. I was told that this is completely normal, especially for an eclectus, and that it's a term of endearment.

However, it seems although it's almost consistent. He is getting rather messy with it, and it is starting to concern as well as gross out the people that I live with.

Is this something that i'm just going to have to get used to or is there a possibility of a deeper issue or control? Thank you!

My Macaw regurgitates a LOT. According to my boyfriend, it's only when I'm around, and it doesn't happen when I'm not there. Apparently, I gross him out......I'm kidding. It's because he is excited to see me.
Is your Eclectus barfing only for you? Is he just retching, or is there food and stuff coming up? When we asked the veterinarian about the barfing, she asked us that, and told us that the retching is not an issue, but if he is flinging his head around and vomit is coming up and getting everywhere, that it was a problem.
I'm no expert. This is all I really know.
