cage advice

Hey! I recently rescued a Quaker parrot from outside and got an old cage from a relative. It’s 30x18x54 in. I know length is better than width but It was better than keeping him in the carrier. I haven’t been able to find the owner and it’s been almost 3 weeks so I’m kinda keen on keeping him...

You’d think the companies that cater to bird needs would know to make better cages…Right? Currently I have a 32x18x64(on stand) flight cage for Peep. It’s a decent sized cage but the width is just….awkward. Honestly makes it difficult to supply it with suitable toys and perches. I’m looking...

Hi! I recently purchased an expensive and large second hand Kings Cages cage for my African grey. After taking it home I saw that there are a few small rusty spots on it. What should I do to fix it?

Hello, I have a Pearly Conure, and since the day I got him he has had a very large cage, I purchased it from a local bird rescue. When I purchased it the owner of the place told me that its big enough that I could comfortably house 2 or 3 conures in it, the space that the birds have access to...

Im thinking of getting this one, but wanted to check and see if anyone here has it, and if they like. I’ve been on the hunt for a big cage with good feeder doors, this is the best option I’ve found so far. :) This would be for two green cheek conures...

I'm thinking about getting a lineolated parakeet and have been exploring cage sizes. I'd like to get a medium sized cage - ideally something they can fly around in a bit but not really big - but it's proving challenging to actually locate one. The size I was exploring is around 32x22 Plus the...

this is my old thread. Since that thread I decided to wait a bit, and decide some time latter because It wasn't handy, the parrots already had a pretty good cage. Some time ago I got an idea of using a plastic mesh (polythene) instead of metal wire mesh. The cage will be for two budgerigars...

which is the most safe metal for parrot cage or will I buy a enamel covered cage? I have 4 variants: 1. Aluminium (or duraluminium(I know that there is copper)) 2. Nickel plated metals 3. Stainless stell 4. At this moment, my budget is only enough for a 76 x 46 x 46 enamel covered cage...

Hey, I’m new to this sitejust wondering if stainless steel cages are worth it? How long has yours lasted? where I am (Canada) they are double the price of a regular cage. And in general everything parrot related is hard to come by here. Everything stainless steel I’ve ever owned has rusted...

My 7 year old African Grey desperately needed a new cage. I saw Gizmo the grey with this cage and the websites I saw said it was OK for Greys, so I assumed it was good enough for him. Fast forward to now, after purchasing, I’m convincing myself that it’s not appropriate. Here is the cage in...

I’ve recently ordered a large outdoor cage for my budgies that will be kept indoors. The problem is that it doesn’t come with a bottom tray, so I’m going to have to find or make my own. I was wondering if anyone knows of any bird-safe material that I could use to cover the bottom with? Would a...

Good evening, I just got a re home adult cockatoo. I have noticed that she is a chewer and bites the bottom bars of the cage when I start to cover her cage at night . The cage that I have is the brand A&E on this link This is my cage . Can anyone recommend a safe cage. My baby cockatoo...

So I've had my two cockatiels, both male, for over a year now. Jo is around 16 months and Niel has just turned a year old. Thing is, family agreed to let them roam freely around the house at first (and a big cage was way too expensive for me to afford then) so aside from bedtime, they've been...

Hi! I'm getting one parrotlet in a few weeks, and I'm currently looking for cages from amazon. I'm currently considering this one...

Hey guys! I’ll admit, I’ve been very stressed out lately. I’ve been having a lot of health issues (physical AND mental) which led to me realizing that I need to step up my game when it comes to caring for my green cheek Conure, Momiji (Momo). This is gonna be a LONG one, so thank you in advance...

Hello I’m searching for a new cage for my conure and came across this one from birdscomfort.com Has anyone ordered from them before? I’m curious if they’re reputable and about cage quality. Thanks!

Hi all, I've had a lovely hand-raised female cockatiel for a year and a half now (she's turning 2 in April). Because she started out as our only pet (and no kids yet) we've always kept her in an enormous cage. (It could easily hold 4 cockatiels permanently and still be spacious). She has lots...

I need a little advice here. On Christmas we got our GCC a new, hilariously large, flight cage and she hates it! We loaded it with treats and food and brand new toys, but she doesn't want to be anywhere near it unless we're in the room. We tried putting her in it and leaving the room, but she...

Hi! Looking for good suggestions for a lovebird cage for Christmas. She is an only bird, my first, and will have been with us for 11 months this Christmas, her first holiday. will be getting her a much larger cage. I really like the A&E elegant flight cage but the price point is a little...
