I decided to try the bird room Idea,
So far it feels nice to have a little more room in our other living space and I think the room ended up pretty beautiful. I put a chair in and I hope this will be my retreat :D
I hope you enjoy your retreat in your own private animal santuary... I love my secret littlet escape to paradise :D
Looking forward to the pictures :D

Heres some photos of the bird/guinea pig room. Its not finished, lighting is not enough. I have to buy some really good lamp for the ceiling and the cages will have some more spot lights. Im also going to move my air purifyer and maby some plants for good air quality. Im currently using one of my old cages as storrage for seed and all, but later on I think I will use a small table as a food station. The guinea pigs are behind the curtains.

The room is pretty small so its a bit hard to get a good over view of the room, but I think you get the picture :wink:

I had to throw in some photos of my little darling blue backs that are finaly starting to get their colours :D Man they are slow :shock:

Here are some pics I had on the computer... I have six guinea pigs and here are three of them :D They are all some mix and not any particular breed, just sweet little pets. And yes the bigger girl and the boy are brothers and sisters and raised here :D

Two of my girls, very sweet

And my favorit, he is a little cutie :D

Your new Finch/Guinea "sanctuary" is lovely! I think you made the right decision for your particular situation. Your birds are beautiful and those little Guineas are adorable as well. I love their coloring. :D

Have fun working out the final details of your bird room and be sure to share the updates with us.
