For your bird room, try an oil radiant heater (they're shaped kind of like old fashioned radiators) there's no fumes and no open flame/element. But, you'll probably want to put something over it to keep them from landing on it - they still get hot.

I actually got a Black and Decker utility heater - I don't exactly know how it works but it doesn't have oil in it but it has a timer so you can just put it on for an hour or so just to get the chill out or up to four hours or you can leave it on and it really does a good job - one of them did the whole down stairs of my house - I was amazed. You can set it for small, medium or large rooms. And it shuts off automatically should it tip over. It does use a good amount of electricity, though...

Honeywell puts soem out that are contained oil. Some are even not hot to touch even if on. I am buying one soon for my hallway area.

This is one that I am looking into:

We have a heater like this: http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product. ... 0804902498

I love it. It warms the room, its quiet, and its low to the ground.

Don't know how practical this is but check it out: http://ergopages.com/cozylegproducts.html?gc1-2

Okay, this one is a real maybe on my list: http://www.avitec.com/PearlcoN.html


Hope this helps.
