Message: <blockquote data-quote="kormath" data-source="post: 106465" data-attributes="member: 4199">no cross ventilation. cross ventilation is a must for avics.  they don't do well when the air becomes stagnant in the enclosure.  cross vents allow a continual air circulation.  yours is in a stress pose like mine was before i read about the need for cross ventilation and asked for enclosure help here.Few ideas off hand, put a fan nearby to blow over the top of the enclosure, not in it, that may create enough air movement to help the little guy out inside the enclosure.  If your handy with tools, or have someone around that is, you could try drilling some small vent holes in opposite sides to increase the air flow, remove the T first of course.  Last resort you can buy acrylic enclosure similar size to that and drill holes in the sides easily.  They may not look as fancy but may help your T to thrive.</blockquote>
