Hope i put this topic in the right place ! I have been covering my bird cage with sheets always , but it seems like light is still filtering through at night . I only realize this because the birds are in my master bedroom at night , and i am an avid television watcher at night , and sometimes fall asleep with the t.v on . Lately i have been hearing the birds moving around a bit at night , which made me wonder if the light from the t.v is going through thesheets , which arent very dark . I just purchased a flannel king size comforter to put over at least 3 sides of the cage { Front , and 2 sides } It is black flannel king comforter , i didnt plan on covering the back of the cage with it though , i was just going to use a sheet back there . Do you guys think that will cut off their oxygen ? I am just scared of them running out of air . I heard though that flannel helps keep them warm at night , and we have the central air set at 72 degrees , whoch gets a little cold at night . I have them away from the air vents , but i have heard each one of them sneeze a few times throughout the day . i havent heard excessive sneezing , and they dont have discharge when they sneeze either . I just hope they arent getting sick , i called the vet , and he said only come in if it is excessive sneezing with discharge . Back to the Cover .. { Sorry i strayed off topic there } Do you think it is safe to cover the birds with that black flannel comforter on the front and 2 sides with the sheet in the back ? I just want to keep some of the t.v light out of their cage , and i know black helps darken it for them . Do you think they will have enough oxygen ? The comforter says it is 60% cotton , and 40% polyester . Just want to make sure its safe before i stop using the sheets . Other question : Do any of your birds have occasional sneezes ? Is that normal ? Both of my birds sneeze a few times a day . No mucus or anything though . |
