Default What do your birds stand on when giving a shower

If you look at my avatar, you will see the perches that both Kally and Monty and standing on, I use them for their showers, They are made out of PVC and are very light weight and easy to get in and out of the tub.
what do you guys use?

My big guys (the macaws) just go into the tub and I put the shower on. They run back and forth. The medium fids go in the sink.

Mine all have different preferences. If I am giving a good shower, most of the macaws just sit on my arm and I put them in there. My Scarlet LOVES bathes, I fill the tub with a few inches of water and she hops and splashes and has a blast in there.

A tension-held shower rod wrapped in vet wrap. It goes across the length of the tub/shower, and several Goons can be showered at the same time.

I have a suction cup perch that sticks right on the glass for my U2 and ekkie. Though my ekkie loves to stand and shower with me.

Both my GW and M2 have a large pvc stand that sits on the bench in the shower.

In the summer time all of them get put on our patio chairs and get misted with the hose.

valo takes a bath in the sink... he's small enough for that, although i sometimes consider the bath tub since he flaps around like crazy all over the place....

bella sits in the sink and gets her shower using the sink spray thingy.... (don't know what it's called)...

I have a suction cup shower perch, but Ollie hates it. Sitting up on top of the shower door and singing is her favorite past time, but she doesn't like to be IN the shower! She bathes in the sink, on my arm.

Dakota we just have to hold him and stick him under the shower stream- he won't stay there on his own!
