Almost all budgies love to bath. There are many different methods of bathing your budgie(s), each equally effective. The following are just a few budgie bath time favourites:
-bathing under a wet lettuce leaf
-bathing in a plastic bird bath tub with a mirror on the bottom
-bathing under a cloud of mist pumped by the owner from a mister
-bathing under the sink faucet in the hand of a trusted friend
Experiment with the few bathing techniques listed to
Determine which is method is your budgie's bath time
favourite!
When bathing budgies, one must remember the basic budgie bath time rules. They are as follows: -the bath and cage area should be free from any drafts or breezes
bath your budgie in the morning so he/she will be totally dry when bed time arrives
do not try to towel dry your budgie or blow dry with your budgie with a hair dryer. Budgies ONLY AIR DRY.
always keep the bath water temperature luke warm

Birds dont really need to be bathed, although they do appreciate being misted. Once a week, get a spray bottle, and hold it about 20cm away from the bird, then give a few squirts towards the budgie, about 15-20 squirts. This will create a mist, and tiny drops of water on the bird. This is all it needs.

They will take a bath in their water dish; if they do, change the water.
You can also use a plant mister. Baths or showers for birds are essential for good healthy skin and feathers. It makes them feel good and they look beautiful after they dry out. It removes old dander, loosens old feathers and re-hydrates their skin. It also rinses out their nasal passages a bit and cleans their beaks and feet.
All in all it makes them feel good, look good and you end up with healthier birds.

Buy a "birdie bathtub" from the pet store... put water in it every day and your little buddy will take a bath when hes ready! they know when they feel dirty and they really do like to feel clean... have no fear he will use it... or he wont... some budgies dont like to take baths... they would rather preen to make themselves feel clean.

Having been a Protestant and now a Catholic, I completely disagree. The Catholic Church became the 1st to translate the Bible into the community language. besides the indisputable fact that, it became not often used because a great style of the laity ought to no longer yet examine. Catholic Church emphasize the sacrifice of the Mass, which happens on the altar, that's the place the priest is. My Church has many abode windows and is incredibly awesome interior. i'm able to shop on with alongside with the Scripture readings...and that i do.

Leave it alone. It will know when it needs a bath. Just leave the water out.

Put it in a shallow bowl of warm water. It will go crazy in it. You might have to stick it in a few times and get it wet but eventually it will get the hint. Get ready to laugh because it's so cute.....

I've seen little bird bathtubs in pet stores that you lay on the bottom of the cage.
