My cockatiel sometimes breathes really heavily ( only for a sec or 2 ) when i cover him up for the night. Is this serious?

Re: Cockatiel breathing problems
The tiel is just probably a bit frightened when you cover the cage. Are you covering the whole cage?

Re: Cockatiel breathing problems
I do think he is afraid of the cover. Does he flip out out just breaths hard? Do you have to cover the cage or does he wake you up if he is not covered.?
