My fiance and I are moving to Boulder Colorado in July, we currently live in South west Florida. We're moving from a city that is only 9 feet above sea level to a city that is over 5,000 feet above sea level. We have an African Grey Parrot that has never been at an altitude that high. We've heard of animals having problems adjusting to the change in altitude. I know for us people, we need to drink alot more water because dehydration is common at higher alititudes... But what should I be worried about for our bird? What are the odds of him having a negative reaction to the sudden change? We're planning on driving when we move, and from Florida it would take us a couple days to get there, and in a moving truck, we wouldn't be rushing our trip. Any information would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
