:Before I go and purchase one, could you please tell me the best temperature I should keep my house at?
:Thanks! SookeyJo in Ohio

Parrots are highly adaptable little creatures. Whatever temp you feel comfortable they will adjust to. That is assuming you don't keep your house at 30 deg. F or below

You might want to keep in mind that a bird keeps their body temperature at 105. when you keep your house cooler, they will need more fuel to keep their body temps up. That doesn't mean you need to keep your house at 90 deg temps, though.
