Even though it's winter what temperature is ok to take a bird home in?
I am getting a bird for my birthday this February but I wan to way so it is a goo temperature to take home I live in north easter pa. I just got a snow storm but the snow is melting when can I take my bird home here it the forecast were I live: http://wnepnow.com/wap/weather/images/images.jsp?sid=56&stitle=Forecast
Put it in a box with a towel, it should be ok for the ride home, keep it out of drafts, (cover his cage) and put him in a corner (no drafts) should be ok.
