Hi X3MTM,

I'm just going to move your thread to the "other" bird forum, so it will be seen by those with other birds.

Thank you

Please tell me that you don't have your parakeets/tiels outside. If you do, you need to take them in. This is what I was told about my tiel, and I would assume it goes for other species of INSIDE birds as well. If you're cold or hot then most likely your bird is to. If you're comfortable, then most likely they are ok. If you're hot, you can shed some clothes. If you're cold you can put on extra clothes. Your birds can't. So please keep them comfortable.

Please listen to Renee and bring them indoor. I have never had a tiel, but we had parakeets and a parrot during my younger life, and they never stayed outside in the winter. They will not survive.
