Why does my African Grey parrot flip backward after flying or landing?

Question

My african grey parrot Mitthu has this problem which I am really tensed. He suddenly flies and when he lands he flips backwards with his head again and again. I don't know what is wrong with him as I am really concerned about him. Please help me. Pet's info: Bird | African Grey | Male

Thanks for reaching out about Mitthu. Concerns are that he is having a seizure. Seizures can be due to nutritional deficiencies, liver or kidney disease, several viruses, exposure to toxins, etc. A veterinary visit is recommended for assistance with a diagnostic/treatment plan. At that time review diet, as calcium, protein and vitamin A deficiencies can be common causes. Good luck.
