It may be that you're overfeeding Baru if he is continually regurgitating food. Since this has been ongoing for a bit, and he is also losing weight it is best to seek veterinary care for a complete exam. it may be that an illness, problem with the GI tract, or even obstruction in the crop is causing the repeated regurgitation. Making sure you are feeding an amount appropriate to his size is also best to avoid overfeeding.
