Im selling my bird cages to start fresh, would this vision cage be to small for Tango?

  • Large wire bird cage for lovebirds and cockatiels
  • Cage detaches from base for fast
  • easy cleaning
  • Debris guard helps keep waste inside cage
  • Single height; Equipped with green perches and food/water dishes

I had this cage in a larger size so I can give you some pros and cons

Cons:
- hard to clean, you have to lift it up, and trust me it's a pain doing by yourself
- base has to have special liners or special cut paper to fit the bases funky shape
- when you scrub it the panels pop off
- not enough space for a lovie in my opinion
- the bars are SOOOOOOOO flimsy they will bend and move when a heavy perch is added
Pros:
- can't think of ANY



All in all if you can spend the extra cash on a cage and get one like this

HQ Flight Cage 32x21 - by My Bird Cage I went from the vision to this and I love it 1000000000% more
IMHO, vision cages are made for people, NOT birds.
Spend the extra cash and get a flight :)
Hope this helps, if you have any more questions just ask me.
Also, I now use the vision as a sleep cage!

You can get a smaller version of the flight cage.

This cage (28x18") is a little smaller than a flight cage, but still big enough for a lovebird. I really would not go much smaller unless the bird will be out most of the day.

Lots of people hate the Vision cages. They are flimsy, awkward to use, and the liveable cage space is smaller than the advertised space because they measure the length and width at the base, and the rest of the cage is narrower.

Thanks @karen256. I would have to order one from somewhere with good shipping to where I live. Shipping is crazy. And the price couldn't be over 200$

I had this Vision cage and couldn't stand how difficult it was to clean it and line the bottom with paper. So awkward and time consuming, so my cons are exactly like Percy&Ivan's.
The actual living space for a bird is limited.

Oh are you in Canada? You might go down and look at some older threads, there have been some about cage vendors for Canada... maybe 2 or 3 weeks ago.

Looks like I'm better off keeping one cage I already have. It's pretty big and Tango seems happy in it. So upgrade for Tango. I moved him from the smaller cage I'm selling to the bigger one that I'm keeping.
