Geez Mystic, you can start a new career - making cages. LOL

It is stupendous. I love that cage.
I was picking up supplies- and my driver says 'madam you need boss's help, otherwise it break'. I said 'no, I build it. I know more than boss'
He said 'No woman can not... need man'
Haha... now he has seen it, and he says 'Madam, You make all? english women are crazy'
LMAO!!!!!

Kinda wish i made it bigger.... but I have a tendency to go overboard. It is plenty big for two birds.
NOTE TO SELF: stop letting birds climb on your phone.... taking video becomes impossible and they think it is a great place to be.

UPDATE: Saya just went up into the tower on the special manzita perch! yay!!!!!!!
I cant go close- otherwise they scream to come out and play. I dont think they realize yet that this is their new home. They think it is 'playtime downstairs' and wonder why I am not with them (im in the living room... -they can see the top of my head about 50ft away)

The only improvement I can see is that they need a Persian carpet instead of the newspapers on the floor of the cage. LOL

This is absolutely amazing cannot wait to see the finished product. I would never have thought to do this. Just got my finches a couple of months ago and am on my 3 rd cage and still not happy.

Thanks!

They are generally getting along. They sleep next to each other at night huddled on a certain branch. It is funny- one branch is for eating, one for sleeping and there is one that is where Saya takes put her frustration.

There are a few behavioral things with saya that I had to start nipping in the butt: if I don't let her clean under my fingernails- groom me- she gets mad and forceful. Her pecks and head butts don't hurt- but it is not a good trait. So there has been a lot of teaching going on.

Zeka is just a sweetheart, up for anything as long as it involves touching me.

As a pair they seem to get closer and closer everyday as saya lets her gaurd down. But still prefers humans. Haha

The enclosure is finished....

Saya and Zeka get along....

They like the new enclosure....

It looks good in my home....


I would say job well done ;)

Saya and Zeka still prefer humans- but they don't fight anymore but are very jealous of each other if I give one more love than the other. They don't cuddle, but they do sleep close to each other at night. Zeka should be getting ready for his adult moult soon... I can't wait to see some new pin feathers come in! (still crossing fingers it is a boy... imagine, little sayzek's running around the house... :hilarious:)

(Saya is 21 grams, Zeka is 24 grams already. Say looks bigger because she has amazing feather density)
Sorry about the saran wrap on the back of the enclosure- I actually made plexiglass panels to replace it today as when I give them fruit- I end up with a jackson pollock painting on my wall.
