A&E Double macaw cage strong enough for macaw?

[Patti Lake]

I need to replace my current hyacinth macaw cage which is the powder coated wrought iron domed one piece - tall and heavy. I realize the the A&E cage states in the name macaw but the cage bar thickness is less than what he has now. My guy has been able to pull the bars of his current cage together with his beak and break the welds. The difference between both cages is that the bars are further apart in his current cage which may be allowing him to get better leverage. There's no one in Phoenix who sells one for me to check out. I'd hate to pay $879 and not be able to return it because it was shipped but not sturdy enough. Thanks for the feedback.

Are you able to save up for a SS non welded cage? May be better. All welded cages will not stand up to a destructive HY or any cage destructive large mac.
