Hello all! I am new to the forum. We are getting a CAG, our first bird! It will be about 4 months old when we get it, provided everything goes smoothly with the weaning. My husband and I are interested in a sleeping/roosting cage but would love some advice! I've read a lot about it but can't find a suggested size for a Grey. I know they can be on the smaller side with only water and one or no toys ( I also know you don't want to leave the other food ring without a bowl of it as it is dangerous). I know covering the cage versus not covering seems to be on an individual basis. Should we include a toy? When should we start bringing the new bird into the sleeper cage? Do we wait a couple days? Longer or shorter? I plan on having a travel carrier but also the sleeper cage will travel with us when we're gone overnight as the main cage. Could I use the sleeper can use as the travel carrier also or do you think I should have both? I was thinking of purchasing either the travel carrier or the sleeper cage and giving it to the breeder so our bird could get used to that particular cage and the transition home would be easier. Thoughts? Comments? Criticisms? Thanks!
