Yup...you should bathe your bird to keep their feathers healthy. There are several ways in which you can do this:

1. You can try using a spray bottle and lightly misting your bird with warm water. Make sure to angle the bottle upwards so the water falls down on the bird instead of squirting your bird in the face with water.
2. You can also give your bird a shallow bowl of water and let them splash around in it.
3. I've also heard that some smaller birds will bathe if wet pieces of leafy greens such as kale or carrot tops are clipped to the cage bars. This would also provide the bird with a fresh, nutritious snack too!!

Good Luck!
