Snuggle Up Warmer

[onamom]

I’ve seen some others posting about the snuggle up bird warmer and I just put mine in Ona’s sleep cage. It’s been plugged in all day but feels cool to the touch to me. Is it not working? How warm is it supposed to get? Hoping some parronts who use one can chime in.

Yup, supposed to feel warm to the touch, noticeably warm. If yours is not it is defective, should be returned to the seller. Ours got turned on a few weeks ago. These let the parrot decide how warm they want to be. There is no 'thermostat' its either plugged in and on, or its not.

it will take a while to get warm and it’s not going to get HOT HOT; the bird is supposed to “snuggle up” to it without getting burnt.

Hm, I guess it’s just not working then. I emailed Chewy we’ll see what they say. Still feels cool to the touch.

Syd's is defo warm to touch - comforting warm rather than hot. The trouble is I have no idea if Syd likes it or not. It is in his sleep cage which is covered. I have tried to get him to touch and he does but that's as far as it goes.

So I tried it in a different outlet and it did get warm! I tried plugging it in to a different socket on the same outlet so we’ll see if that works. Strange thing is I tested the outlet by plugging in something else and the outlet was working. So not sure what’s going on. Hopefully I can get the warmer working with the outlet below her sleep cage. Today is cold where I live!

That’s strange. I’m glad you don’t have to send it back.

It’s still above freezing here. I don’t know if Willow would like the bird warmer but I will probably try it soon. I also have a warming perch that I think I will put in Jaspers cage though he isn’t by the window.
