I had her since she was about 4 months old, and I tamed her, had a good bond with her and I would take her out each day and she was really healthy as mentioned by a local vet (I had checkups each 3 months). But I still haven't figured out what would have caused her death...the most obvious answer would be that it was too cold for her, being around -5 at the time. But I always had a thick blanket on the cage throughout anywhere between 6 degrees and under.
Now my question is this:
What are the temperature requirements for owning IRN's? Because I'm getting a new Blue Indian Ringneck tomorrow and I live in a place where it can be around -7 degrees at night. I have the cage set up in my room (practically the warmest room in the house) and I'm REALLY! hoping my new bird companion to come won't suffer such a fate until he/she is around 25-30 years old...
Also on a side note- Her name was Trixie, and my new bird will be named Vinyl.
Also I was told birds only poop whilst staying still, in this case. not flying...but I think that was wrong, since last time my bird pooped I was on a chair trying to reach a high place on my wall...
