Do budgies regurgitate seeds and eat it back up? ;;;?
I've been reading up on vomiting vs regurgitating because my budgie's been pumping his neck up and down and I see seeds come out of his throat and he's nibbling on it and he eats it back up.
He only shows this behavior like 1~3 times a day and when my finger is around, close to him. He uh... rubs his beak on my finger, chirping softly (not loudly as usual) and he (with his beak still on my finger) pumps his neck up and down and I start seeing 1~2 seeds in his beak and he's constantly nibbling on them and he eats them back up.
I heard when birds regurgitate, they regurgitate ON something, like mirrors, toys and into the mouths of other budgies. But mine just eats them back up as quickly as it came out, almost.
OR am I wrong and is this vomiting? Otherwise, his stool seems healthy and his behavior is just the same if not a little more active nowadays.

What he is doing is a natural response, it is the way they feed their young. He may be a bit confused because he has never had a mate and you are triggering the response by rubbing his beak.

I own a Military Macaw (female) that will tap-tap on my toe-nails and sometimes regurgitate a rubbery peanut and lots of saliva. She is mimicking maternal behavior, but all birds have a crop that serves as a predigestive receptical. I think it can also be a breeding behavior, however.
