My bird has red on his feet and face after a bath. Is it serious?

Question

Hello. I have this question. Rio was playing on the bird playground and then I gave him a bath like a tub with lettuce and he took a bath. But I saw there's some red coloured on his feet and face. Is it bad??? I can't seem to remove it cus he won't let me. It's hard to see under his feet. Pet's info: Bird | Unknown - Bird | Male

The red color just looks like some sort of stain (maybe from the playground or bath) and Rio otherwise looks normal. If Rio is eating, drinking and acting fine, then no need to worry. If you notice something else wrong with him, then it would be best to alert your vet and they can check him over to see if he has some other issue causing the red stain. I hope that helps and all is well with Rio.
