would a heating lamp work to keep my baby conure warm
So, the heating pads are no longer a viable option in keeping baby parrots warm. Besides the fact that these heating pads have posed dangers to over heating and under heating parrots for many years. I have been making and using this type of water brooder to keep my babies warm for many years.I am able to heat up the baby's environment as high as 97-99 degrees and keep the temperature at this constant temperature.The heat that is generated by the fish tank heater can be held in better by covering the tops and sides of the brooder with heavy towels or blankets.epending on the type of baby, I keep the humidity levels at 50 to 75%. I find that caique babies need much more humidity for their development than conures or poicephalus. The way I increase humidity is by putting a bowl of water in the brooder, making sure that the babies can not get into the bowl and drown.
