So I usually give my boys a dust bath every night when they go back home, they don't itch nor does their skin seem to dry out; unless they don't get a dust bath. About a 2weeks ago I was unable to give them a dust bath, the next day they itched like crazy all day and would hardly play until I gave them a bath, then they were fine. It happened twice this past week (I was at a late night confrence) and the same thing has happened. Are they just playing me or is there lagit something going on?

They get used to their routine and when you change it they will let you know they are well aware ::nod::
A few seconds every night will not hurt, I use the bath to get some back in their cage. ;) Mine never spend more than a couple of minutes in the bath, though they may go in and out several times.
