Woohoo! A Lettuce Leaf Bath

Bucur is loving his wet lettuce bath! Parakeets love having a bath – in shallow water, with greens in a bowl, under a gently running tap or in the mist of a spray bottle. Bathing is fun (woohoo!) and is part of their grooming.

Wet tufts are great fun for many budgies as well. In their natural habitat, in the morning the birds move through tufts that are still wet from dew. This is how most wild budgies take a bath.
