How to Give Your Parakeet a Bath

If you have a pet parakeet, you need to give him a bath about three times a week, or two times a week minimum. This promotes hygiene and keeps your pet bird as healthy as possible. The best part of giving a parakeet a bath is that you only need to prepare it for him, and he will wash himself. You do not need any soap. Water is sufficient for this task.
