The birds' room is the coldest in the house in winter and the hottest in summer so I'm constantly trying to keep their temperature comfortable (for me; it doesn't seem to bother them). They have an electric radiator to boost the warmth in there because in spite of two heat ducts, the central heat just doesn't manage to keep their room as warm as the rest of the house. I have plastic over the windows and heavy curtains over that. Today I didn't pull the curtains back in the hope that leaving the heavy curtains closed would help keep it warmer, too. Once it gets good and warm, it stays that way, but the cold snap we're having (everybody's having!) caught me off guard. So I turned on their UV lamp and left the curtains closed and I don't think they're happy. The tiels like to bask in the light of the UV lamp, but Clyde gets grouchy. It's in a corner so they'd have to go over to that corner to get in its light, but I still expect a grouchy Clyde when I get home after work.
