I was wondering what causes toilets to burp or gurgle when their flushed. I have not found anything on this. From what I understand is if its a bad vent, then you need to flush more than once. Could the burping be from bad venting also?

Could be vent is partially clogged,check from the roof.
Sometimes a hard object such as a toothbrush gets caught in the trap and causes issues.

Does this have a septic tank? It may need to be pumped. A plugged screen or drain field would do it.

I recently had a cell phone blocking a toilet, so don’t rule out an obstruction.

My toilet makes a farting sound when I sit on it. Is this normal??

That’s interesting… Mine does the same thing when I’m standing in front of it.
