I saw a conversation on instagram on how all these people's conures preferred colder showers. I wonder if that translates into other species aswell. I wanted to ask opinions and experiences on your birds' showering habits, specially temperature and how often they do. My amazon doesn't seem to...
I recently bought a shower perch for my conure. Should he be in there while Im cleaning myself too or is it something thats its just him and im near by? If i can be in there can I use scented soap?
Ok so, as some of you might know, I was given a macaw as a surprise gift (Warning: NOT A GOOD IDEA) but either way, I read you can take showers with your birds. I also know birds are particularly sensitive to scented things. If I have scented shampoos should we get rid of them? Are there certain...
Hello,
My conure is cuddly. Yes he is, trust me and I won't elaborate on that.
However after show when still wet, he always wants to be alone and won't step up or interact. He becomes cuddly again when he is complete dry..
Just wondering if this is a common thing or do I need to have it...
I have had my eclectus for almost a month now, he’s been adjusting really nicely, talking and sqwaking, preening, all normal behaviors. I can tell he’s still unsure about a lot in my house and I’m wondering when I should start introducing him to showers here. His old mom used to just put him in...
Bella is doing very well right now.
She has finally got to the point that she enjoys taking a shower with me. The first time I tried this she screamed like it was the end of her world.
Now she flappers her wings and really gets into it. It’s like taking a shower with a fan/breeze. The one...
I just took my bird Oscar into the shower for the first time and something interesting happened: while under the droplets, she stood very still and closed her eyes. She also let me touch her, which she never does. For a moment I was worried and then remembered that a GCC I follow on Instagram...
Kiwi is finally showering on his own, I don't even need to get into the shower with him anymore.
If you're trying to get yours to shower, perhaps playing this video for them will help. I tend to make YouTube playlists for mine based on whatever I'm trying to teach him and it seems to work :)...
I've tried this before, but I find it very difficult. I take black jack onto the shower on my hand or shoulder and he melts in the water :D. He gets completely soaked! However, I have to put him outside the shower when I use soap. I know a lot of people shower with their birds, but isn't the...

Our wonderful happy and healthy lovebird, Bella, died today from a bird wash shampoo.

We read the instructions and followed it to the tee immediately after spraying it on her we could tell that she wasn't acting normal so we quickly rinsed it off of...
Any ideas on how to get my YNA to start showering? He hates when I mist him, so I stopped doing that. I can bring him into the shower with me, but he'll avoid the water and does not like when I "drip" the water on him. He's only bathed once in his water bowl to my dismay. But honestly, he looks...
Hi everyone
My first post here :) yay
I have a 5 month old Bare eyed Cockatoo. He is a pleasure and allows anything and everything my partner and I do to him. The only thing is he is a little dirty... actually alot. He loves to roll around on the ground to play. He is fully flighted and...
I'm a new Eclectus owner (adopted him a few weeks ago) and the previous owner said she would bathe him by lightly spraying him with a garden hose outside... So I've been doing the same thing but Rio doesn't like it!
How do you guys give your Ekkie a bath?
