Aloe Vera...

This could be a really stupid question but here It goes...

 

I know greys give off a dust and can suffer from dry skin and when Georgie is grooming himself and then shakes i can see lots of dust rising.

 

I read that if you put aloe vera in the water that is used for showering that it can help so im going to try that but was also wondering if you could also put a drop into the drinking water????

I would not put it in the drinking water. It would go rancid possibly over a few hours.

 

Just using the aloe juice and spraying your grey 2 or 3 times a week until drenched will keep the skin supple.

Aloe is suggested for human consumption as an aid to digestion - but parrots don't need this supplement. I

 

Introduce Georgie quickly to the spray bottle - I find it best to spray Harvey when he's in his cage (he can't escape)!! Georgie will sharp get used to it and benefit from his little spray sessions.

I mist Ana Grey almost every day, she loves it and twirls and holds out her wings so that she can be totally soaked through and through.

I love Ana Grey bathtime shots - she shows just what those birdies are missing!!!

I used the aloe vera on Georgie last night and he was fine with It. Didn't love been sprayed but didn't really mind either :laugh: I tried him In the sink for a bath last week and he hated It:woohoo:
