its kind of like she does this undulating thing with her head and neck. Like if she is regurgitating yet she opens her beak wide so it looks more like shes choking. I dont know if it the Quaker way of adjusting there crop but it looks way different compared to videos of other birds I have seen adjusting there crop lol as I speak shes giving me kisses

Well, I would suggest taking her to a vet for an all-over health check just to be sure she is perfectly fine. It's best to bring a bird to the vet right after you purchase them to get a clean bill of health.

Thanks for the advice shelby. I might take her to take a checkup. I did call the breeder and she said it was probably her just regurgitating out of affection. I also wanted to ask has anyone on here ever made a homemade bird play gym? My wife has her own etsy store and is very crafty so we wanted to make a desktop play gym for Luna to hang out on made from wood.
