New cage

Post by wearjo » Sat May 19, 2012 8:58 pm

Hey guys, I got a new cage for my finches, and it's a much better improvement than what I had before :) It's a 70 buck flight cage, because my nearest Bunnings (Australias home and gardening store, I'm not sure if America has it) is too far away for my to ride on my bicycle and get all the required materials...

Anyway, so far they are really happy with it :D I still need to put in a bird bath #-o But that'll be put in soon enough ;) Photos will be put up later, like in 10 minutes ;)

thanks guys :) When they breed, I'll probably start building a cage divided into two with a solid divider, to seperate males and females... I'll do this as soon as I start seeing eggs :)

Wow, nice! I think I have the same flight, but in white. :) They are great flights, although a bit on the small side. Congratulations!

I have a pair of zebra finches... one normal, and one Isabel? I keep forgetting whether she's fawn or isabel #-o I hope they'll breed really well... because a lot of my friends are already requesting :roll:
