We are currently in the middle of a heat wave here in the Toronto area. It is around 32-33 degrees celcius (91 F) and in the low 40's (105 F) with the humidity. And we do not have air conditioning (however I think it will be our last summer without air conditioning).
Anyways, the birds seem to be doing just fine in the heat. They obviously have fresh water available to them all day and we have been misting them several times a day. In fact Lucy usually runs from her mistings, but the last few days she seems to be enjoying them. When I handle them, their body temperature doesn't seem any different than it normally is.
Not that there is very much I can do at the moment, but just wondering how hot is too hot for parrots? I realize that Red Belly's and Senegals are African birds and I'm certain it gets this hot and even hotter in their natural habitat, but are parrots bred in captivity able to handle the same amount of heat?
Again, they're not showing any signs that the heat is bothering them. I'm just curious more than anything else and just want to make sure I'm keeping them comfortable and healthy during this weather.
