Hi,

I have seen a very strange behavior in my IRN, she keeps her beak open (by putting her lower and upper beak tips on each other) and I can see some water accumulating under her neck.

I don't know her age exactly but should be something around 6 months.

dose any one what is this? is it normal?

regards,
M

:( Oh dear, this does not sound normal. It sounds very odd. I'm sorry I have never heard this. I hope you can find the help you need. :(
