Hi, and welcome to Parrots. I'm the moderator.

ANY parrot can be a handful, that's not at all related to size!

Good move--pet stores can often give misleading advice. The regulars out
here have the equivalent of several decades of bird experience, and
we're glad to share it. Did you have specific questions? If so, just
ask--somebody will jump in and answer, I'm sure!

I'm glad you took the bird to a vet for a checkup--that's a good first
step in bird ownership. As for baths, some birds bathe daily, some don't
like water at all. If your bird bathed on her own in a dish, this is
good! Mine like to bathe in the sink, in their water dishes, or
sometimes even in the shower on my arm (water is aimed so it hits a
shoulder first, creating a soft mist that won't knock the bird over).
If she likes water, one bath a day isn't too much. Just be sure that she
is kept warm and out of drafts until her feathers dry off, so she
doesn't get chilled. That could make her sick.
If you have questions, feel free to ask them! That's why we're here!
Welcome aboard!
