She's so adorable. I'm excited to watch her.

I love my watching a bird bathing! Brings me so much joy. I have tried the seasonal feeding food and non of my birds will touch it when I add water. My budgies are so picky, and I have had them since they were babies and always have offered chop. Pip is finally eating better, but still wants formula and the avian vet said let her keep eating formula as long as she wants. Tonight she did go after your pellets so I was happy with that. Not sure how much she actually ingested or if she just broke them all up and made a mess 🤦🏽‍♀️. Will they eventually eat the crumbs the drops?

For the longest time I didn't bathe my macaw in the shower because he didn't like the spray bottle, and for some reason, I just *assumed* that because he didn't like the bottle he definitely wouldn't like the shower (lol). Well what do ya know! One random day I have Pablo with me while I was rinsing something under the tub faucet and he just hopped right in and loved it! I was so shocked but it definitely taught me that sometimes you just gotta try different things and actually see what your bird may naturally prefer. Glad Ava enjoys!

Since I have a perch closer to the water stream and one further away, usually the bird will choose which one it wants to be on if they’re both out. My Camelot macaws are really the only ones that move from perch to perch but no one wants to not be on the perches. They don’t like being on the ground that’s for sure.

I love to see the placement of your purchased in the shower . Do you find that they change purchase in there? I have an INR to absolutely will not move. He seems to be more comfortable in the tile. Do your birds move around?

I am excited to watch this, I am in the middle of a podcast so I have to wait before being free and receptive to this video (I always find this kind of videos packed with helpful information, gotta be receptive) but I feel incredibly impatient to watch this hahaha 🤩

When I brought her home my birds were living outside so I mainly used the house, the back porch screened in area and then the quarantine space for sleeping and usually meals. So I was still using it, just not filming most of my interactions with her in it. I like to use the back porch as much as possible though when the weather is great.
