Regurgitation?

Hello all!

Question - I sometimes want to take my gcc, Zelda, in the shower with me just so she’s not alone (she doesn’t like when I leave the room without her). The first time I did it, she was fine. The second and third time, she was regurgitating.

My sister always took her African grey in the shower with her, and he never did this (to my knowledge).

Does anyone know why she might be doing it?

Thanks!

Could be she sees you as her mate. Is she interested in toys or other bird activities?

She plays with one of her toys every now and then. Other than that, no, shell just walk around or sit and relax.

Since she has already been in the shower, she must like it. Does she spread her wings and bathe in the water? It's an activity for her to enjoy with you so may be trying to regurgitate as a way to show affection. Sounds like she's bonded to you.
