Hi all, haven't been posting in a while, but my birds are doing great. I am wishing I could get a bigger cage for the cakes at some point in the next year or two. They are currently in a 36 wide. I would like to go for a 40 inch, maybe...but Norah is a little thing, I don't know if I feel comfortable with her in anything bigger than 3/4 inch bar spacing. All the bigger cages have inch wide bar spacing.
I was also considering trying to build or make a large cage or indoor aviary type thing. I have exhaustively been researching what others have done, but it looks like everything is geared towards finches or budgies (I worry about my two chewing on the wire or mesh) or macaws/cockatoos (bar spacing too wide). I am pretty imaginative, and my boyfriend is darn handy with power tools. I was picturing a frame from pvc, or possibly wood, sitting straight on the floor, using vinyl on the ground to cover the carpet. But I cannot find a good material for the sides!
Any thoughts?
