Grey Bathing

[TheGreyMiester]

I do not have a Grey yet but was wondering how often do you need to give it a shower?

I found a baby that is not weaned yet and I'm going to take a look at it today.:woohoo:

well i spray my african grey nearly every day but if it doesnt have a bath often enough it tends to get dusty so i found with mine

TheGreyMiester, I think introducing your bird every day to its bath is safe to say it's regular Don't ever force him though. Also, if possible let him have his baths in the early afternoon so the feathers get enough time to dry up before retreating to sleep (which with wet feathers don't seem to be very healthy)

Thanks very much for the advice. I saw my baby Timneh this past Sunday and it was very nice! It was very tame, it kept beaking my wedding ring and trying to climb up to my shoulder. The nails were razor sharp also!

I will be able to bring it home in May, and my breeder is going to start calling it by the name I have chosen.

We are going to call it Oliver and Ollie for short.

The Tumbnail image under my name is the actual photo of the baby I bought.

He is so sweet {Love-0002011D}When I'm gonna have an either Timneh or Congo, I want him to look like that B)

Oliver is a cute name, I think (always reminds me of Oliver Twist :blush: )

I bet you can't wait till it's May :lol:

TheGreyMiester will you tell us your experiences when you get your bird? (like....... :P did it kiss you back? :P ...... )

Just joking

But I'm truly curious to know especially the first day at home :blush:

I've found that my grey is very easy to bathe, but hates getting sprayed! Even after I bathe her and she's still wet, when I go to spray her with the Pluck No More she gets mad.
