I would honestly be carefull lowering beneath 18C, think of what habitat they live in, and warming each other at night in a suitable tempered place. A little bit cold feet is a less problem than very warm feet (fever) of course normal temp. is the goal. A sick bird with flu, sneeze fluid from nose(maybe eyes as well), and is a BIG warningsign. In addition to bad respiriation (low activity, tail is tipping back and forth while perching and noisy respiratory sounds)
