xSarahx Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Ill start from the begining i was hoovering and Archie flew over to me and landed on my shoulder,so i walked him back to his cage after i finished the room and off he went,he then went into this `fit` he done what you can see in the video which i assume is him bathing yet i got the squirter out and he still lunged at me like normal as he hates it ,he done this with hes water bowl for about 5 mins,and me changing hes water 3 times,hes then gone to the top of hes cage climbed out and rubbed hes beak all over the top of the cage,no bar left untouched , climbed back into hes cage and has had a right good go at one of hes toys,is this a normal bath or is he as peeded off as i think he is for someone reason??he has now calmed down and just sitting there shivering,also as you can see he seems abit bald on his neck and chest today yet i have found no feathers anywhere i dont understand it??iam going to go and get him some aloe vera spray and anti plucking spray i think although he HATES being sprayed so dunno what to do Excuse the music http://www.flickr.com/photos/77628157@N07/6888595216/ I will admit iam also feeling abit nervous of him at the moment now because he has his `i hate you ` face on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvparrots Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 (edited) Looks like a bath to me. You are lucky your grey likes baths. A lot greys do not. The aloe vera spray is a great idea. I mist my greys all the time with a very fine mister. they like to climb to the top of their playtop cage and I spray upwards at them never in the face.

pikachu Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Ha ha! It's a bath. Our CAG looks just like that when she "bathes" in her water bowl. Makes me laugh every time! They are so goofy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kins2321@yahoo.com Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 xSarahx definitely a bath. In my opinion, your bird is struggling with " who is the leader", of our flock. Many don't believe in a flock leader. I believe in it. It is me. My birds and dogs, also believe in it. Today, my pup Zoey who sleeps with me, had a seizure at 8am. She is seven years old. NEVER any health issues! I didn't know if she was choking, as she tends to take several toys to bed. After a minute of not breathing, I attempted the heimlich. No response. After two minutes, I attempted to open her jaw, started CPR. I saw the light draining from her eyes. She finally blinked! It was the worse day of my life! Took her to vet, they did bloodwork. When I got home. Sophie cameout to hang with me, knew I was concerned about Zoey. Sophie was quiet, and concerned about Zoey. Zoey had a second seizure. Not as bad as first. Sophie knows I'm worried. So is she! Sophie LOVES Zoey. She is a good friend. Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
