It is an awesome cage. I will warn you about the swing in the cage. The bells rust very quickly, my experience and many others. Keep your eye on them and in the meantime look for another swing toy that would be better. I removed the bells and replaced them with other bells. That turned out to be a bad thing. My budgie got his toe caught in the loop that attaches the bell. Fortunately I was near by and got his toe uncaught and he wasn't hurt. Many people here will tell you that the vendors here have safe and wonderful toys. You can always ask them if the size is appropriate for a budgie. Their toys are a bit more expensive than the mass produced toys you find on Amazon or the big pet stores but you'll know they are safe for your budgies to play with and chew on. I hope you have a lot of fun with your budgies. Come back often and tell us how you're doing! Good luck with the tail feather issue.
