Larger flight cage (help)

[Grace_F]

I'm looking to upgrade my A&E flight cage to something bigger for my green cheek conure, Finn, does anybody have recommendations for cages larger than 32x21x35, with 1/2" bar spacing?

I've been looking at two cages so far,

Prevue F050 X-large flight cage (36"x22"x47")

this one is a bit bigger that my current one, has lots of decent reviews, but the construction does look a little flimsy

Borneo II Exotic Nutrition (46"x23"x63")

Notice: The Add-On is NOT a standalone unit. Add-On units are specifically designed to expand an existing Borneo Cage. The Borneo Cage (Version II) from Exotic Nutrition is crafted with the highest quality materials and outstanding workmanship, featuring 38 ft cubic space, removable wired floor...

This one is A LOT bigger. I haven't been able to find any reviews of people using it for a conure. It looks like it could be really cool though

anyone have experience using either of these cages, or other cages to recommend?

Bump.

The Prevue definitely are more flimsy than the A&E cages, but they hold up better than you might expect. I've had the smaller flight cage before; biggest complaint is they are harder to clean.

Exotic Nutrition tends to market Borneo for small animals more, so it may just not have a lot of traction yet in bird groups. They do have customer reviews on their website though!

I haven't used either of those cages, but just wanted to share a couple of points that may be helpful. 1) While bigger is generally better for birds (the more space, the better), think of your own situation too (how much room you have in your home, how easy or difficult it may be to clean the cage or to move it to different rooms as needed. 2) There's a lot that can be done to reinforce flimsy cages, so I wouldn't let that deter you. One easy fix is adding zip ties to the junction points to make sure it's stable and won't collapse in any way. 3) If you plan on moving the cage around often, pay special attention to the wheels/casters to make sure that they work well. Whichever one you go with, I think Finn (love that name!) will appreciate it. Good luck!
