Sunnies LOVE water and having baths. Maybe if you give him/her a dish so can bathe, or mist with a spray bottle, the water may help wash it away.

It was freezing, windy and raining here yesterday, (think the wind was coming off snow nearby) and the silly conures were IN the rain having a shower :shock: while I was rugged up in front of the heater!! :lol:
