Depends on how your birds let you handle them. Some of mine are sweet and let me do anything to them. Others are satan with wings. Calm them down first, get the water warm and see how you do. I normally just use a warm washcloth but it sounds like they had a poop flinging party. You could always use a bowl of warm water too. Be sure to dry them off well. Use a blow dryer or put them under a heat lamp until dry especially if it is evening there. You don't want them to become chilled.
