Why is my budgie vomiting clear liquid but still singing and dancing?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Bird | Parakeet | Male | unneutered | 1lb

My budgie has been vomiting, but not like any other bird. The vomit is clear. He doesn't bob his head or shake his head from side to side. After he vomits he acts like nothing happened. He starts singing and dancing. I don't know what's wrong with him, please help.

Thanks for reaching out about Pudgie. Regurgitation can be behavioral but also possible illness such as metabolic disorders (liver, renal), toxicities (zinc, lead, plants, etc.), crop infections or impactions and more. A veterinary visit is recommended to assess and provide a diagnostic/treatment plan. Good luck.
