Your Betta fish most likely has a condition called Pop-eye. It commonly results from damage to the eye or bacterial infection. Heres a website to get you started... http://www.fishjunkies.com/Diseases/popeye.php

He's probably constipated or you fed him too much. did he eat recently? try not feeding him for a few days and see what happens. if that's all that seems wrong and he;s still acting normally, he should be ok. Probably just ate too much or he's constipated.

It's because it is sick or pregnant if it is pregnant that means your going to have babies in a couple of months and in that time you should take care of your betta fish but if she or he is sick you should put some medicine in that tank so your betta fish won't die!

Most fish will take a bite of food, then spit it out and eat it again. This breaks the food up into smaller pieces. It's like chewing, and is normal behavior.

The "air pocket" on the underside of the Betta fish is actually it's stomach.

If you would like to know what gender your betta is, look for the egg spot. (for females) It should be a small white cloud between the head and body. If your betta has one, it's a female. If your betta doesn't have one, it's a male.
