They don't necessarily need a bath every day, but it's best to give them a bath every day. This is good, because it helps keep their feathers free from dirt and debris that can cause skin problems. It also helps keep the feathers from getting too dry and eventually cracking and breaking. I hope that helps and all is well with Munia.
