How often do you give them bath water
I offer bath water every day throughout the year
Lukewarm to cool in the cooler weather, when it's hot outside you can use colder water
Love of Pets I give my birds a bath by putting a lot of water on their favorite vegetable or fruit
I love how at 0:27 Sprinkles looks like he sticks his wings out to test the water!!! So cute
that was adorable.
I have 11 budgies and 1 cockatiel and I use the spray bottle method as that works best for my birds
MASTER ME COCKATIEL
the budgies are gonna rebel against there king
my ringneck is scared of the mister.
My budgie won't take a bath
OMG I'm playing this video on my tablet on the table. My lovebird immediately ran to the screen when your birds were singing, studied the screen like she was watching her favorite soap opera and sang back at your birds! Love it!
Man when she said "birds love noise" I was like my birds are the noise specially trying to watch this video they have been screaming all day 😂
Lol same, my bird never gives it a rest straight yammering all day every day loves the vacuum and blender, birds are weirdos
My bird just heard all the raucous and is joining in!
@@galacticwarlock2271 I forgot I even posted this comment haha
When I heard the wet lettuce part, this was my reaction.
Me: Seriously? Wet LETTUCE?
( Tries It )
Bird: Plays with it and loves it
Me: How is this possible?
Yongkao Chen Glad it worked, thanks for watching!
Yes give it a try
Natural.. Feeling
SAME WITH ME
What a varied list of options! My favourite is the Goldie's lorikeet at 4:53, almost snorkeling in the bath. One of my Senegals takes a mini-bath in her water bowl, which is a sign for me I must give her the large bath. Thanks for sharing these with us!
My Goldie's rolls around like a dog in a mud bath, lol.
Thanks for watching!
she is like the bird queen 👸😂🦜
She surely is!
Ohhhhhh how sweet is that birdie! I love that birdie bath! I love them all so much! I love birds!
Lori’s Hartland Hi, I can't wait to meet your ghost bird. 😁
Lmao my budgie absolutely hates baths. I have tried bathing him in the sink, a bowl, wet grass, etc. I usually just use a spray bottle. He hates the spray too, he runs away from it so I usually just spray him 2 or 3 times and stop bc he wont tolerate anything else lmao. Whenever i give him a bath in the sink he chirps like crazy and just flys on my head. I'll get him off my head and move him near the running water and he just squaks and flys on my head to get away lol. I hate to force him but my bird is pretty nasty so he needs to be clean so I just use a spray bottle, even though he hates that too he will tolerate it more than a bowl or the sink. The spray bottle works best for me and my budgie Kenny..I suggest to use a spray bottle if your bird is too stubborn to take a bath himself in a bowl. Lol.
Same with my cockatiel, my lovebird just casually jumps into the sink to take a bath but my cocktail won’t go anywhere near water
My Parrotlet is the same it’s tough 😅
Mines even worst I tried the bowls he never get in. And when I tried to get my budgie in the sink she would fly away and sometimes she will get in her cage. I mean I can't grab him can I. Well I tried the spray bottle but he would fly away and he will get super upset. I took me a while to gain his trust again so I don't know what to do now
Same with me I literally don’t know what to do anymore my budgies love baths especially in bowls but my cockatiel hates water except for drinking I’ve tried spray bottles water bowls sinks he hates it all so now the only way is to spray him like you said or hold him under the sink without getting it in his face ;(
Mine too but it doesn’t get clean under his wings
Omgosh! What a great video!! After MANY tries n fails even the vacuum. I got my budgies to start taking baths by putting a mirror under the water. My babies were so afraid of water, metal n glass so I tried a silicone rubber pie pan which is also non-slip (safety first!) and easy on the toosies too. They just love it.The water stays warm a little longer too. Now they are taking a dip all the time.
That's a great option. I forgot to mention about a mirror. I have a bath with a mirror that my budgies love. The stainless steel bowls are like a mirror, my Cockatiels look at themselves and go in, 😀
I adore all the bird ladies who have youtube channels...because I, also, am a bird lady, but I especially like you in Love of Pets, because you are calm. You bring a certain peace to the frenetic, fast moving world of parrots. I dont see any ocd in you, nor any hysteria, feigned or real. I need that calm sometimes. And you are so helpful with your education in every bird subject . I'm so glad you're here! I just wish you would say your name more often , cause I'm not sure what it is!
Thank you, glad you like my videos 🥰. My name is Donna.
Thanks! I can’t wait to try these on my new bird El!
that yellow bird at 6:45 soooo adorable! i love all of them all. Lucky you spending time with all those lovely birds 🥰
Thank you,,,my birds like Spray bath,,,,
Thanks for all the tips your an amazing mom to your pet family
Omg I literally saw this EXACT water fountain thing at the pet store today
This is so helpful bc my bird can now bathe with me and so many more ways
Thanks for your tips!
Hi, my little canary loves his bath. He flies free every morning now after I watched your videos and getting more confident with him. Where can I get one if those tiny white water pumps that's in the stainless steel bowl please?
What a nice compilation of ideas ! ...I really love your "cupped-hands" bath...that little birdie seems so happy !!! 😁
Such a beautiful video!! You really love your birds they are really thriving 🐦💕
My English Budgie won't go near any kind of tradional bird bath, so I am anxious to try one of these!
I have a little 4 month old Cockatiel Peanut. I've only had her 2 weeks so still getting her to trust me. I heard about the spray method on UA-cam however I am not sure if she likes it or not. But she does respond the same way your bird did. But really would rather her taking a bath at her own free will. I've been trying using what I have at the moment a plastic container, but when you said try stainless steel or even glass I'll try these ideas first as I do have item's here already. This makes sense to me. As for Christmas she got a new much bigger house that has stainless steel water and food bowls, today I noticed peanut was standing in her drinking water. So that got me thinking maybe if it was bigger she might have used it as a bath. Now after watching this video I'm going to try this. Thank you. Just don't know why I never thought of this before. As it will fit in her big house now.
Cockatiels do enjoy looking at themselves in the stainless steel and once they are in the dish to have a closer look at themselves they will take a bath 😀. Good luck with your Cockatiel and have fun.
My gcc like the sink, with running water of course. I put a washcloth down so it's not so slippery. He also likes the shower perch and to be sprayed down, I don't do this near his cage as to keep the cage dry. Jake just loves his baths for sure! Nice options you give, thanx
I love that I found this I have 11 society finches just ordering the them a bigger cadge and them going through water is a pain and looked up the flower Catit Flower Cat Water Fountain and was looking at prices and stumbled on you video. Which answered the question if any one has tried this with their bird.
Your birds will love the fountain. My birds go in it daily.
Love of Pets,
They like drinking from it but they don't like bathing in it. But it giving cleaner drinking water for longer. Which was a big part or the goal. I might go down to home Depot and get a piece of pipe so the flower is hight up so they can fit under it better. I'm guessing that is what they don't like.
Hi I have a cockteil as well you helped me bathe her she was very dusty and I didn’t know what to do but know I do thank you
Thanks
This is a beautifully well thought out video. Thank you very much. Your love of birds is very appreciated.
You have such beautiful birds I actually want to own a budgie just a small bird to start out with
The shower trick is something i want to try when i get a love-bird.
Thanks so much! Now my birds are clean! Well they always here except they are kinda itchy well not anymore that much!
Just subscribed! Thanks for the tips, as a new bird owner I have much to learn! We have three rescue budgies.
Thanks for subscribing. Congratulations on your new birds, they will bring you Joy.
Please reply....
I have a question. After bathing your birds do you need to dry them with some sort of towel or hairdryer?
Or do you let them dry themselves ? (I mentiomed hairdryer bc i watch ppl do that to their birds)
All my birds dry themselves by preening. When birds bath they usually don't get soaked and dry naturally.
This was such a helpful video! Thank you. I recently got a blue and gold macaw baby, he is 10 months old and haaaaaates water. I have had him for about a month and have only twice succeeded in giving him a shower. I tried the pan bath thing but he wasnt having it. He will "submit" to being sprayed with a water bottle, if he can sit on my shoulders. But he doesnt enjoy it, which is why I dont want to do it. I will try these and hopefully find a way that he loves!
Congratulations on your new bird.
There is a good video on the Birdtricks channel of how to desensitize a bird to being sprayed with water. Check it out as it may help
@@Loveofpets Thank you, I will check it out!
Thank you my bird bathes now.
So many good ideas, especially the vacuum!! Now I feel so refreshed!!😊
Thank you for sharing these helpful tips. I do find with my monk parrot if I spray her then she will go and bath.
So adorable you are such a bond
I have two buddies jazz and chills they are so fun. I hope everyone has a good day and go out a do something
my cockatiel will NOT take a bath unless she's in the shower with me. i've had to hold her on my finger but i'm glad to see there's a perch for birds! thank you!!
Your welcome. You have a special bond with your bird.
Love of Pets agreed mine cockitiel. has to be on my arm or shoulder in order for me to bathe him. I'm going to try this perch out
Mine just doesn’t like water at all. Ima have to try the mist and maybe soft running water in order to get him to. I have a like bath spray, which is fine if I spray it never him and let it fall, but I find that it doesn’t help too much with the dust. *WhY dUsT*
My birds get in the shower or the kitchen sink
This is a GREAT video !! 🚿
Nice name for sprinkles
OMG I love your vids ❤️ 😃
My budgie Monty likes rolling around in wet lettuce leaves... sometimes the ones on my plate if I am not quick enough getting his own ready before my dinner.
My budgie hates baths but that really helped all of them thank you very much love your channel
Great job with your birds.
Thank you! You're very helpful with your videos.
The stainless steel dog fountain is the water safe for parrots it states dog and cats but I’m skeptical as the pump which is made of plastic sits in the water bowl. How long have you used it? I’m looking for one for my sun Conures
Hi, I have had mine for over 5 years and have not had a problem with it.
What was that Linnie doing!!! LOL! Great video
I like your cocktails the most
I just bring my budgies in the shower with me (separately) lmao... they'll sit on my shoulder and any spray that happens when the water hits my head or neck will get them. They don't LOVE it, but they aren't scared either... plus, it works.
leahisnotnormal it works for me to, but my parents have banned the birds from all bathrooms. And none of them will bathe in other way 😕
So helpful! Thank you! I’m getting a cockatiel in 3 weeks! Since they are so dusty I really hope they will enjoy bathing
You must be excited!
Good info!
This was fabulous !
very helpful
I had that fountain! I'm gonna replace it though because the cable broke... For now my budgie enjoys the sink and rubbing his head on the porcelain lolol
Aw that lovebird is so awesome! Very energetic and happy
i wanna marry that Woman and her Pets. So lovely 😍
She has a husband
@@mariamddt lol!
My 2 'tiels love being sprayed, especially on hot days. They hang upside down, spread their wings and have a high old time. Only my female will use a bowl to bathe in. They also like the vacuum cleaner, usually go around with them sitting on my head whilst I do it.
What would you suggest for a mourning dove?
Great idea. Using a cat drinking fountain for the birds. I hope it works for mine. I am planning on sneaking her i to the shower with me. She used to love it!
I bought the same flower water fountain for my lovebird, but he doesn’t fit under the flower. How did you make it longer?
Hi. I put a few elastics around the bottom of the flower to raise it up
Thank you! I really appreciate your video’s. This is my 1st time having a bird since I was a kid and all your advice is really helpful.
I just got a pair of cockatiels this week which are both very dirty and I noticed they once dropped a very small insect into their food bowl. Is it safe for the birds to give them a bath in the first week of getting them? I've had them for 3 days at the time of writing this, both are male and both seem to be over 1 year old.
Congratulations on your new Cockatiels! If your birds are not scared and settled in then yes give them a mist bath or offer a dish of water for them.
If they are scared and skittish then offer a dish of water to bath in and hold off on the misting until they are more settled in.
@@Loveofpets one of my birds is scared and the other gives me 1 or 2 warning bites before getting bored. I assume the dish should be a fair bit bigger then the water bowl, would a small dessert bowl filled with water work? Should I maybe try to put some leafy greens in the water as well?
Try a shallow bowl that's big enough for them to fit in and yes leafy greens is a good idea.
@@Loveofpets alright thank you so much!
I have a cockatiel and he is a picky eater! He only eats a few type of seeds from his mix and I’m afraid he’s not not getting a well balanced diet .... also cockatiels usually end up having liver problems due to poor diet! I’ve tried a few different brands and also a few different pellet brands! Any suggestions? Is there a particular brand you use?
Fresh foods are best. Make some chop and limit seeds. Have you tried Tops pellets? Tops is the best pellet. Take seeds away at night and offer only the chop in the morning. If he does not eat the chop try different methods with fresh foods. Some birds like their fresh food in bigger chunks or hung from the cage bars. Here is a video I made about fresh foods ua-cam.com/video/XP1KxvKDG_Q/v-deo.html
Thank you 😊
TFS ☺️🦜 do you ever put ACV & or baking soda in the water? ......that’s what the breeder, where I got my White canary Jimmy, from said he uses all the time for his 40+ canaries in their spray bath 💦
When you said you use a pie plate all I could think was chicken pot pie 😂😂😂😂
Emma O123 😂😂😂😂
My cockatiel is obsessed with sticking his feet in water, but never wants to actually bathe XD
When I have my (drinking) water out without a lid, he will go up, stick a foot in it, then walk away.
Lol, that's cute.
Hi there. Wow! What a fab video. You have so many lovely birds and appear to look after them all so well. How do you get time to work. Ha
I live in Wales in the UK and have a just over a year old male English Budgie, his name is Eddie.
He's been quite grumpy of late and doesn't come out of his cage much. I wonder if you could give me some tips please. He will have a bath in a bowl , infact he appears to love this.Ive taught him a few words and he chats away. He eats well. Do you think he's going through a thase or coming up to a moult maybe.
I have am 50 married with no children, I'm not too well with Sjogrens Syndrome and Fibromyalgia so I struggle to get downstairs in the morning. Do you think he's be better coming upstairs in the morning to be with me. I'd be so happy to get any advice you may have.
Keep up the good work. Thank you.
Hi, yes he would be happy to be with you in the morning. Make outside of his cage interesting and enticing by putting millet, and special treats in an area such has a bird stand area with shredding toys etc. Keep the door open and put his bath outside of the cage. If he is molting they do get cranky.
Love of Pets Hi there. Thanks for your quick response. On the floor right below his cage I have set up ladders and lots of activities for him to play with. He use to come down and play for ages. Tonight I managed to entice him down, but I was a quick fly down and sqwark and squeak back up to his cage.
I appreciate all your advice.
Sometimes when he comes to me he will fly onto my hand and then bite really hard sometimes a couple of times. I've tried rolling my hand to stop and I've also tried saying no quite firmly. What would you suggest. Is it because he wants me to have food in my hand? I'm feeling like a helpless Mummy. Could I email you some photos maybe?
My budgies bite me also and I don't know why. The females bite more. You can send me pictures through my Instagram or Facebook page if you like. The links are in my description below my video.
Thank you again for all your kind advice.
Hi..I have a question.. I have 30 days cockatiel chick.. it's smells a lot.. how to take her for a bath??
Wow, fun to watch and educational, too.
My Green Cheeked Conure, Jasper does not like to bathe. He will sometimes dip into my ice water when I'm not looking. He gets his whole head under water for a second, dips his neck in, flaps his (dry) wings. Then he takes hours to "dry off." He hates it if I spray him.
I have a little cat drinking fountain. Jasper loves watching the fountain and listening to it. That' s it, though so far.
My Canary Winged 'keet, Zeke, insists on being sprayed many times a day. If I don't he bathes in his drinking water.
He, too watches the fountain for hours, but I haven't seen him dip into it. It might be too deep. I got it because it has a nice, smooth edge that seems the right size for them to grip. I have a 60 day return privilege on it, so we'll see.
I'm also tempted to try your DIY bird bath. Only thing, it looks messy. I don't really have a place that can get too wet without ruining something.
Thanks again for posting!
Some birds think they have bathed and only their head is wet or they have a drop of water on them lol. You are lucky to own a canary wing, there is none in Canada.
My cockatiel loves taking a shower with me (I bring him in after I bathe myself) but I was wondering how many times a week should I bathe him?
Great video as always 😃👍🐦
So cute❤️
I used a plant mister for my Amazon. He got nervous at first, so I moved away from him a bit, and kept spraying. After a while he spread out his big gorgeous wings, and turned this and that way. It was super cute. I think every bird loves showering even if they seem nervous at first.
I got a cockatiel about a month ago (just before Christmas 2020) and I’m trying to find the best way to bathe him, but before I find that out does anyone have any suggestions to helping your bird to not smell like cheese?
Extremely helpful 👍💕
I have the exact same looking lovebird and it takes a bath in my hands or the sink :P
My linnies go crazy for the spray bottle! I call them my water whores hehe And my lovebird does great in a shallow dish, I love watching them bathe!
The parrotlets all climbing in at once are so cute :D they're so calm compared to all the others having their baths
Jessica Hammage They do look like Parrotlets but they are linnies. They are a little bit than Parrotlets. They love to bath has a group. Thanks for watching.
They are so nice to each other, taking turns and whatnot! ;w;
Excellent video!!
I have two budgies named luke and ingrid
Luke is the girl and ingrid is the boy. No really
They personally prefer being sprayed
I have a new lovebird (almost 6 weeks) who is yet to have his first bath. (Dont want him to get too cold when he gets out, its winter) Im researching ways to make sure he has to best experience on his first bath time!
Sprinkles is just having the time of his life in the beginning
How do you clean the aquarium? Please share. 🙏🙏🙏
Hi, which aquarium do you mean? Do you mean the bird bath?
Thanks so much for the great ideas my budgie just won't bathe and he doesn't like to be sprayed either
like that vaccum advice!
wao, this is cool, by the way is that pink budgie ? 1st time I saw it
Hi. The pink bird is a bourke parakeet 😀
Can we use tapwater to bathe budgoes, i was told not to because of the clorone, but i want to run the shower/sink and try if he like the running water
Is the water safe for you to drink? What kind of drinking water do you give your birds? If it's from the sink and you drink it also then yes it's safe to bathe in. My water had chlorine but it's minimal and it's safe for humans and pets
@@Loveofpets ive been giving them purified water, but yes our water is safe. Thank you for your reply!
do you have a link to that stainless bowl with the white pump?
Hi, here is the link to the stainless steel dish amzn.to/3dBcFUW
@@Loveofpets oh I didn't realize it was that one without the metal top, thank you! I believe that's what will work for my guy.
My budgie is afraid of every method so he takes a bath by standig on a see through glass bowl and I poor the water with my hend on him and he enjoys it a lot.
Pour*

Sorry I correct so many thing I just don’t like incorrect grammar
Alexx Sh aww cute
Your vids are really helpful
Glad to be of help 🤗
I have two budgies named sky and neo(from the matrix)
My pet bird is a kakariki, very hard to bathe him ;-; these don’t work but I will try the vacuum soon.
Great video but where do you get the shower thing ( 5:57 )
Hi, here is a link to the shower perch amzn.to/2Fk6FzZ
You may be able to find them in bird specialty stores as well
My dimorphic mosaic canary just like yours just as i put the bathing tub he imediately just started to bath
Hey ,first of all nice vedio .really helps .secondly can yu tell me the gender of the grey cockatiel please .
Hi. Thank you. Male grey Cockatiels will develop a Yellow head and the females head will stay grey. If it's a baby you will have to wait until it's older or get a dna test.
Males whistle more then females.
Saw your videos for the first time and subscribed 😊
I have paid a fortune to several avian vets which all gave me conflicting information or didn't want to take the time regarding questions and feather plucking with my cockatiel.
His liver count has been high for a couple years even though he doesn't get seeds. He gets Harrison's pellets and Nitriberries, which my recent vet that's all he needed to eat for a healthy diet. He said I had to give him by mouth liquid milk thistle twice a day for the rest of his life, but he hates me doing it and I'm afraid the stress isn't good for him.
Can you tell me what you feed your cockatiels and do you give daily supplements? My bird has a huge cage 10 feet wide and three feet high with the side cage doors opened in his aviary room so he can fly around, be on perches outside the cage or go in when he wants, but most of the time he hangs out with me. I've spent another fortune on toys, and foraging toys, but he will not play with any of them, even when I show him how. Is it normal for some birds to be like that?
Thank you so much again for sharing your knowledge so others like me can give our birds the best life possible. Cindy
Hi, I feed my Cockatiels lots of veggies such as Romain lettuce, kale, chard, parsley, arugula etc. The darker green the better. I give cucumber, carrots, peas, corn, sweet peppers, broccoli, brown cooked rice and or quoinea and cooked pasta. Scrambled eggs or boiled eggs and squash and sweet potatoes. I don't give everything at once and change it up with the season. They also like banana, grapes, apples, watermelon etc but not too much fruit as it's high in sugar.
Nutraberries are high in sugar so only give once in a while. I feed zupreem natural and the fruit flavored pellets along with a Cockatiel seed mix but more pellets than seed. They also get some spray millet has a treat or reward for doing something right.
My Cockatiels love soft wood and shredding toys. What kind of toys do you give your Cockatiels?
@@Loveofpets Thank you for replying back. The avian vet I went to told me to just feed pellets and Nutriberries but I knew he was wrong. He also convinced me to surgically put a hormone pellet in his back and now my cockatiel is feather plucking twice as bad. The only thing my bird likes to do is chew bossil (sp?) wood.
I'm going back this Friday to have the hormone pellet removed then look for another avian vet.
Thanks again and love your UA-cam videos 😊👍. Cindy
Is the catit flower water fountain big enough for Cockatiels?
Thanks!
They could dip their heads in it and if the flower part is raised higher I am sure they would fit.
