I have notice that Drago and the lovebirds (especially the love birds) have been eating a lot more since the weather is cold again. None of them are gaining weight either. Could it be too cold in the house (I have the heat at 70) and they are burning calories keeping warm?

I know the dogs and we eat more when it's cold. Our heat is a wood stove, so the temp is all over the place. Sometimes it's hot and sometimes it's cold in here. Clyde has always been a little green piggy, so I can't go by him! I don't know where he puts it all.

My fids are all eating more with the change in season as well.

Yogi is actually putting on some weight finally laugh.gif

Flirt has always been about the food, so I can't really go by her. She's like Clyde Siobhan hehehe.

Even little Spazzie the lovie is eating more though, so it's got to be a seasonal thing with the temp change.

I hate winter! 48 years old, and I'm still trying to convince my Mom to return to me to the parents I'm sure I belong to in a warmer climate laugh.gif

Oh.. has anyone else got fids who go crazy for pumpkin?? Wow! my fiddo's all love it.
