Hey guys,
I recently got a 5 month old jenday conure. I am in love with him but a little overwhelmed! Pippin is very quiet while I am with him, but screams when I leave him alone (as birds do). To keep him and my roommates happy, I have been moving his cage outside during the daytime, then back in to sleep at night. While I am home, he is inside on my shoulder. I live in Northern California and temperatures are generally in the low 50's. I have a 150 watt heat lamp for him while he is out and block the wind around his cage, but I am still worried that he is too cold. He has been acting very quiet and less playful than usual today - could he be getting sick? Is it too cold for him outside?
Looking for any advice from more experienced bird owners!
