So we had heat temps around 91 and 91 degrees and both Zip and Olivia were not feeling well because of it, and showing signs of heat stress. These signs included lack of appetite (both food and water), seeking shelter under dishes or toys, the sick eyes (where they just look like they don't feel well in their eyes), looking unkept, lethargic, fluffy, etc.
If your bird shows signs of heat stress, simply get them into a cooler temperature for a minimum of 48 hours and offer them cool, clean water. You should see them perking up pretty quickly upon getting into cooler temps. I also feed the SFS semi-frozen as well.
It did give me the opportunity to work with her on something she would be more tolerant about. What did you think?
