Who's smelling your bird?

[wrench13]

Salty smells like flowers after a good scratch session. I like to think it's his happy smell.

I think we should all take pictures of our birds WETTTT!
That would be a good giggle all around.
The Rickeybird gets this patch of feathers that sticks out over his eyes... looks like a huge uni-brow!

I think I'm addicted to Mango's. ........smell?:54:
Mango is always getting real close to my nose when he snuggles. Is it weird that all my family love to bury their nose in Mango's neck and, um, sniff?!:30: Yep, bunch of weirdos here! Pretty sure the neighbors saw me sneaking a sniff Saturday!

Love the nutty, fruity scent he has. Today he even had a cinnamon smell too. I'm happy he's fine with me ( and everyone else) smelling him too!

After all, he's fascinated by people's faces. He has to get right up in them and stare!


Wonder how many "sniffing weirdos" are on here?

Funny you should say what you said because I said the exact same thing in the other "smelly" thread! Great minds think alike...or is it great noses!?

Count me as one of those 'sniffing weirdos', too. :09: I could 'inhale' Amazon all day long, in fact I wish someone would market their scent - I :smile015: so much!

....I also like the smell of (my) wet dogs. Is that weird enough yet? :54:

I was with you all the way ...nodding with consent...until you got to the wet doggy part. Nope...I don't like wet dog...now newly cleaned dry dog I love!

Does anyones smell must? as Jasper does and its effecting my chest, any idea's on how I could change his smell?

Dazg...

I doubt you could take away the smell, but I suppose you could get some advice from people here as to what you might put in bathwater... something non-toxic and good-smelling...

Another idea, which I got from my bird: I notice that when he preens after eating a fresh pepper, he smells like the pepper. If it's a sweet red pepper, that's nice. Hot serrano... not so much! So what treat could you offer that smells good?

Thanks for that its just its setting my asthma od when researching I never saw one thing about them smelling musty. Just loats saying if you got asthma these are best birds to have. I will be gutted if I have to take him back to breeder and if the diet change doesnt work I will have no choice : (.
