Hi everyone, gandalf my grey lives on a first floor in a house, today a member of my familly decided to paint the garage door while i was outside my house and when i arrived the room where my bird is was smelling to paint. i was wondering if i should do something even if the bird acts normally since paint is so toxic and for sure he was able to "smell" it
to clarify he has been exposed no more than an hour and the only thing that has been painted was a garage door, inmediatly after i arrived i moved him to another room

Keep him as far away from the fumes as possible and keep a close eye on him.
With some toxins, such as non stick fumes, the effects are immediate but with others there can be a delay.

thanks for the advice, everything is cleaned now and no smell stays in the air anyways i will wait like 2 hours to take him to his room, he has been eating well and there is nothing wrong right now. i will keep it up to date
is there something i should pay more atention to? i mean breathing or something like that

Yes keep an eye on his breathing, because it would be the respiratory system that is affected by the fumes.
