Regurgitating when being dried

[AMidnightSoul]

Hi all,

Maggie takes a shower with me in the mornings. Since it's been chilly in the mornings lately, I dry her off with a washcloth/hand towel. She's started the habit of regurgitating as soon as I put her in the towel. I DID flip her on her back to dry her belly and wings, but I've had to stop that since she's regurgitating. I don't want her to aspirate! Even if I don't flip her on her back, she regurgitates. This is the only time she does it. I'm not sure what to think of it. Any ideas? Do you think I should quit drying her off?

You should be lucky that is the only time she does it. My brownie regurgitates (or tries to) for me constantly.

Luckily we take our shower in the morning so there isn't a big mess of berries when she does it, lol. It's really kind of gross. I would hate to think of the mess with a larger bird. Glad to know other brownies do it!
