Hi, so I’ve recently decided to convert my new dog crate into a sort of indoor aviary as my dog doesn’t use it. It’s 94cm wide, 55cm wide and 61cm deep. And as there is an opening at the top i plan on putting a cage with similar height and depth measurements on top. I have 2 budgies, 2 cockatiels and a quail who I want to put in it. They’re a a very close knit flock and have been living free roam in their own room for about a year together with no problems at all, apart from the mess they create which is why I’ve decided to put them in a cage again. They usually sleep in an open cage at night, so I’m hoping it won’t Be too hard to reintegrate them to cage life. I was just wondering if this sounded like it’d be good enough for them? The cage has a deep base and I plan to add a mix of soil and maybe pine shavings to the bottom. Plant suggestions would be helpful also! (The birds have lived in a cage before briefly with no issues) If this doesn’t work out, as I know one of the budgies is a bit annoying, I might put them in a seperate cage and add maybe a bourke or pair of finches. The cockatiels have beautiful natures and have gotten along with everything from budgies to lorikeets, though ive never had finches before so not sure if this would be smart, given the size differences. Help appreciated!
