@KimberlyMcDonnellTV : Not quite sure what your comment means? Parrots need to get drenching wet for the health of their skin and feathers. Rocky loves going in the shower and getting wet!

i have a hana's macaw. is that what rockey is. he let me hold him today and i got him 6 days ago. i have a question, do they like being directly in the water during a shower? or just on top of the shower? plz text back.

Rocky is a severe macaw, so he's bigger than your hahn's.

It's very important to remember that every parrot is an individual. It's up to you to figure out what your new parrot likes.

Some parrots love the water from the shower falling on them, others like it only if the water is cool, other hate that and prefer to be given a tub of water to bathe in, still others like to be misted with a plant mister.

Read your new parrot's body language (macaws are very expressive!) Try to give him choices

[mcdrb44]

(Cont) and respect what he communicates to you nonverbally. If you don't listen to him, you'll teach him to bite because that's the way he'll get you to listen to him!

Ask him if he wants to go in the shower. If he steps up, bring him in with you, but out of the spray of the water. Show him how fun it is! Talk in a high, excited voice! Watch him closely -- does he feel comfortable? Is he leaning away from the water?

If you build a good bond with him, you can have a loving relationship.

Sadly, many people give up their hahn's macaws after a few years because they get tired of the biting. Hahn's macaws can be very nippy/bitey birds. But, if you watch their body language closely and respect them, you don't have to get bit.

Good luck as you embark on your new relationship!

Stupid question... don't they shit in the shower?

Second question...is it fun for you if they do?

That macaw looks like a real sketchbag up there lol

This parrot sounds like he is being mentally scarred.

Seriously, why would you take your parrot to the shower with you, get naked, and show him your private parts???

Are you too shameful to admit your size so you want the parrot to do it for you?

I also have a Severe (Tanner) and a Timneh (Maxi). Tanner L-O-O-O-V-E-S a shower! I have a shower perch in there, and he can hardly wait for me to be done with my bathing so I can turn the removable showere head upside down and really get under his wings. :D

Maxi, on the other hand, HATES getting wet.

My severe macaw stands in the same place and sings up a storm while I'm showering!
