Couple questions for everyone. Sunshine is in a cage in the living room, I cover it at about 7 at night, she calls for a few min then settles down and we dont hear a peep from her till the am when we wake up. Question is, do you think she is getting enough sleep? The tv is on in the room until about 10 at night, she doesnt stir at all at night, and doesnt nap durimg the day. Everywhere I read talks about 12 hours of dark (which she gets) but doesnt say anything about noise. Soooo sleep cage in spare room or not? Also if I do a sleep cage what should be put in it? Just sleep perch? Food? Water? Toys?
Next, we are moving from sunny San Diego to cold wet Whidbey Island Washington, anything special i need to do to help with the weather change? We will be moving around christmas, so dead of winter. Since we obviously wont be able to go outside into the sun everyday like here, should I get a lamp for her? (lol me too) if so, do i need special expensive bird lamp or a regular lamp with special bulbs?
Thanks in advance for your help I really think I might just love all of you for all your great help, stories, and pictures!
