Hello!
I've been trying to get my bird, Bobo, to bathe for months now and I'm pretty sure I've tried everything. I've inserted a bath tray in place of his water, waited a LONG time, but he just drank it like normal water. He's not fully hand trained, but when I manage to comfortably get him out of his cage, I fill out a bowl with warm water. Again, he just drinks it. I've even tried putting his favorite seeds in the bowl and he won't budge. The last thing I've tried is a spray. I fill it with warm water, put it on mist, and gently spray him when he's in a "good mood". I don't think he likes the spray. I've tried so many things to get Bobo to bathe, but he just won't. I don't necessarily know if he is tamed yet, though. He's comfortable with my hands close to him and he loves to sit on my shoulder. I guess he just isn't hand trained.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
