Question
someone on a Facebook parrot forum told me to never cover my budgies cage. I cover it sides and back in the day for AC purposes. I cover at night bc he likes it. I leave a spot open for air. She said they don’t get cold and have cages and not tanks like reptiles for a reason. She told me to get a grow light for uva uvb so I did. My birds been cold and lost some weight. I think her advice is suspect. Is it bad to cover your birds cage too and sides or sides too and back to keep them warm ? Does it prevent ventilation causing respiratory issues ? Please help.
