Chick Coop Aviary?
Not that I can fit one anywhere, but if you removed the ramp, put nests on the inner section, and then perches in the outside it would be prefect!!!!

Re: Chick Coop Aviary?
The enclosed section will be too difficult to work on.
You can't do any maintenance in that part w/o the birds escaping.

Re: Chick Coop Aviary?
You are right.. mm maybe there is a way to get all the birds inside and close a door to the inside so yu can freely work outside? and vise versa for nest checks

Re: Chick Coop Aviary?
I was looking at those the other day. I think they would be great to keep button quail in.
Owls, Goulds, European Goldfinch, Red Belly Siskins and Zebs... For now...

Re: Chick Coop Aviary?
These are designed to be moved around frequently--as the chickens soil the grass/ground under the coop, the whole thing is moved to another area. Of course, finches wouldn't soil the area very fast. Also, you'd need to check what size the wire mesh is. By the time you buy this and then make all the modifications, I think you'd be better off building something from scratch.

I was able to see it, though I don't think it's very suitable for finches. My chickens and quail would love it though.

Re: Chick Coop Aviary?
It was not even inappropriate, why would it be flagged?
Debbie, I think it would be nice if it was adjusted
