Hello,

Does anybody get their Irn fid to take dust baths?

Is a dust bath just a behavior for non caged (in the wild) birds?

What kind of set up, type of dust, etc. would be used, is there an upside/downside to it for the fid?

Thanks.

Yeah we dont really worry about dust baths if you have a water dish they tend to have real baths.
