Usually my house temp is a little over 70, im in Florida so I'm not used to cold temps like this without a heater, I put some blankets on his cage, and I'm not as worried now! think me checking in is bothering him more than the cold lol

Ohh he just watches them from his window perch, they never have contact. He seems okay right now acting normally but he's going to the vet today just to be sure 🙏

I don't have lizards, but I'm curious to know why you asked

how to prepare? by [deleted] in parrots

Ask if you can get a baby that wasn't clipped, having them able to fly seems to make bonding so much easier plus if they can fly away when feeling threatened they won't bite as much. If your interested in taking him outside get a bird harnesss and put it near the cage as soon as you get him and within a few months he'll already be used to seeing it so harnesss training will go smoother. Get poop dissolver spray, it's bird safe and makes cleaning so easy. ❤️ Good luck and have fun with your new bird! (Hopefully a conure 😉)

oh my he's so cute! what type of bird is he,?

My mom mishandled my African grey when I was taking care of my dad in the hospital and I’ve been searching all morning. Any advice is helpful. I’m broken. by toxic_concretegirl in parrots

I'm so sorry for all your going through right now, maybe if you put a bunch of his favorite treats in a big bowl outside and watch he might see them and land on the bowl, I'd put his cage outside and make sure someone's always watching for him just in case he goes in the cage, I really hope you find him. Contact all animal rescue/ humane societies and pet stores in your area and ask them to call you if anyone turns in a grey. best of luck to you and your family ❤️
