Ah, you're not too far from me, although Portland is totally a different climate! It's raining here now :D

Do you shower with your bird? Does your bird like to bathe himself i.e., do you have a water dish for him? Tiki doesn't like being sprayed; she prefers bathing with me or in her water dish.

It's my sisters birds she going thru major health issues so i am fostering her birds, well soon only fostering one i found a santuary for the other (very aggressive amazon) just went and checked it out today Riki gonna be a very happy bird. I think I an suffering from a lil hearing loss at the moment tho, my first exp. with :macaw: and :cockatoo: there was like a dozen in the one building and they all had somthing to say about strangers , whew makes the 2 :amazon: sound like song birds :lol:

Buzz the other Bird will remain with me , but i don't shower with her, but i do mist her alot she loves this sprayer we have for her and i have a water dish in her cage for her. So far it has stayed 50% in the room i have her in.

It's perfectly fine for a parrot to shower with a human as long as the water is cold -and that's why none of mine shower with me -LOL
