Do Dander Birds Like Cockatiels Require a Regular Drenching?
Scott writes,
Hey folks: Our 4-year-old (almost) male gray Cockatiel Buddy has a dander problem?
We can get him to bathe outdoors when he’s out in the lanai and it happens to be raining which is a fairly common occurrence here in west-central Florida but the problem (?) is that we can’t get him wet to the skin. Buddy will shake off after a bath and a cloud of dander will “poof” off him.
I’ve read that birds, in general, need to get wet to the skin to remain healthy. Any thoughts?
