My grandmother has both a cockatiel and I'm not sure what the other bird is - its very small with Bright colors and is not the type of bird you bring out to play.
Anyway when I walked in to her house ( she is not home) the carbon monoxide tester was going off. It continued to go of beeping 4 times every 60 sec ( meaning that there is supposedly a high level) until I reset it. Well that was at least 30 min ago and it hasn't gone off again.
I read somewhere that a bird is the first to feel effects from carbon monoxide so I thought I would keep an eye on them but I don't really know what I am looking for.. does anyone else know what to look for?
Answer
Miners used to take a canary down to the pits with them to detect carbon monoxide. Your gran's other bird sounds like a finch.The signs that it is present is basically a bird lying on the bottom of the cage with it's feet in the air (sorry to be tactless!)
Are you sure the persistant deeping isn't a sign of the batteries needing changed - my smoke detector does that. It is curious that i hasn't went off again, whether it was low battery or high carbon monoxide levels. Are you sure you reset it or did you switch it off. I'm sorry if it sounds like I am making you out to be stupid but I am just trying to figure out why it wouldn't go off again?
good luck

Answer
Battery or batteries must have been getting old even with it not switched on. I betcha it would stop beeping if you replaced the battery or batteries. If you care about your sleep, replace the batteries. Otherwise, it's going to wake you up.
I have both smoke detector & carbon monoxide detector that came with the rental house. Had to replace batteries in one in the middle of the night. The other started beeping off & on a few months later. Tester showed batteries were okay, but still it kept beeping off & on. Slept with windows open & was quite fearful due to warnings all over detector that I should leave house & so on. Finally, figured out how to open it & went ahead & replaced batteries. It's fine now with no more beeping. That gives me the general rule of thumb. If it beeps & there's no fire, replace batteries. If it's a carbon monoxide detector, you can leave the house & call the fire dept. to check it out like the box says, or you can gamble on it & open the windows & run the ceiling fans in the dead of winter in case it's really carbon monoxide. If no more beeps, forget it. It's fine.
