  • I was wondering how often one should bathe their bird??...i try atleast once a week with mine and im just wondering if thats enough? and should they get regular bath times in the winter? I dont want them to get sick =(

  • Well, I usually bathe my birds 4 to 5 times a week, or when I see them preening more than usual. Once a week isn't enough because they breathe in the dust that coats their feathers and that's not healthy for them. To keep their feathers healthy they really should be misted once a day - in the morning. But a bare minimum of 4 times a week is necessary :)

  • And for Winter, they should keep about the same bathing routines as any other season. Just keep in mind the temperature of the room where the cage is placed, and make sure you do it in the morning which gives your bird enough time to dry off before night :)

    And don't worry if your bird shivers, it's natural, and helps their wings dry quicker ;p

  • hey after the shoer shuld i dry him or let him dry off him self :S plz tell me

  • You should let him dry himself because a blow drier can make his skin itchy and irritated. Just place him in a warm room until he is dry and cover the cage to keep out drafts.

    Thanks for asking :)

see all
