Regurgitating and rubbing??

[tanktop74]

Lola (named as a she, probably a boy tho) has started to regurgitate for me when I get home from work. She gets all lovey with me, goes and hides in my shirt and will regurgitate a beak full and the eat it again. Is this normal? Should I be concerned?

She/he has also started to rub on me. Could it becoming sexually mature at 20 months of age?

Anything i should worry or do differently?

Thanks,
Beth

Yes, (s)he could be maturing at 20mo.....the average is 24mo for a sun, give or take a month or two here & there.

Males tend to, as many male animals, hump, while hens will often do rump rubs, but I've seen both do both.

The regurgitation is partially digested food from the crop, rather than the stomach, much better than presentations from the other end ! ! !
