Home Showers

bathing your parrotShowers - a Key Ingredient !

I believe a key ingredient in keeping your parrot happy with their environment is the ability for showers.  Whether that be bathing in a large dish, the shower with you, steam from the shower, the gentle sprays from a spray mister, in the sink, being sprinkled (in their cage outdoors) by the garden hose or with the natural rainfall in your area.  There are many options available.

All of these shower possibilities are important to the parrots feather condition, as well as, mental stimulation. Showers should be given often! Showers will not only help with your parrots feather condition, but they will keep the dust and dander down too.

parrot preeningParrots love to preen their feathers. This is so very natural for them. Remember, many parrots are from rainforest environments. Therefore:  Showers =
      Water = Pleasure = Stimulation
