6. I plan to move the parrots into my bathroom. I've got a oil heater in there.

The doves cage is sitting on a sturdy coffee table that was built by Boy Scouts before 1972 (my acquisition date). I've got an oil heater next to them. I plan to wrap my electric blanket around them until the house returns to a normal 75 degrees.
