Monty shows us his best side on Camomile bath day

The budgies decided that they would love a bath today and requested that it be a Camomile one. So I boiled them some water and put a teabag in. Then it was diluted with cold water so that it was luke-warm.

They all dived right in. Roswell and Jerry especially enjoyed themselves and got very soggy indeed!

Hot? have a camomile bath..

The budgies have been enjoying camomile tea baths for the past few days. They love to take a sip of the water and then have a wade through it.

Roswell and Jerry like to get particularly soaked, little Roswell puts his face right in it to make sure his beard spots get soaked.

Just the thing to cool down on a 26 degree day.

I use a two litre jug, steep the tea bag in 200ml hot water for two minutes and then top up with lovely cold water. Remove bag of course!

Serve to fiends in see-through glass dishes. Relax and watch them splash about and have fun.

Roswell has a Camomile bath

Every day for the last few months I have put out a dish of water by the side of the Summer Palace. Blueboy usually likes to fly down to it and have a nip first thing in the morning. If I don't put it out he sits and waits in the space until I do.

Yesterday I put camomile tea in it. This was in the blind hope that it would calm the budgies down, they had camomile in their water drinkers too.

Roswell decided that Camomile was just the thing to take a bath in, he must have been waiting for this day!

It was enjoyed with such vigour. Pictures follow of a most soggy Roswell.

Camomile Bath Frenzy!

It has been reported that four very naughty budgies have been spotted enjoying a rather luxurious camomile bath

We sometimes put Camomile tea in their bath because it seems to help them when they are moulting, besides they really like it as you can see.

 

 

Jerry and Roswell bathe while Snowy waits his turn. Monty springs past like a gerbil.

How do we get this damn ball out it’s too slippery.

The husband holds the bath up in the summer palace and it soon becomes a frenzy of poolside fun.
