Okay so I left the bathroom door open and Paco decided to investigate. They are now standing in a shallow pool of water in the tub, wings spread out, absolutely LIVING their best life. I wish I could share a photo β€” imagine a tiny Hahn's macaw in a human bathtub looking like they own the place. Anyone else's bird have a weird bathing spot?

Reading this hit home. My Amazon parrot went through the same phase around the same age. What helped us was spending at minimum 2 hours of supervised out-of-cage time daily. Also just accepting that birds are gonna bird, you know?

Dealt with this for months. What finally worked was changing their perch layout and just being really patient. They come around eventually.

Hang in there! It gets better. My blue and gold macaw went through this too.
