If Meenu is not acting ill this may be normal for her. Birds are not great at regulating their body temperature when they are young. She will feel hotter or colder at times based on the ambient temperature. I would not be overly concerned but if you are, you should take her to an avian vet for an examination. Sometimes it is better to be safe than sorry. Best wishes.
