New breeding cages

A few weeks ago an old finch friend was kind enough to give me two sets of large breeding cabinets with three in each set. :D :D
I've only finally begun to put my first pair of zebras in one of them and hopefully will be able to fill the rest in the next few weeks to take off the mounting pressure of all the zebs filled in the other aviary.
Heres some pics of the first cabinet, once all the cabinets are filled i should hopefully be able to have a structured breeding program for the zebs instead of letting whoever breed with who they want in the aviary...
ps. you may also notice each cabinet numbered which is also a plus, lol :D

Yeah well thats actually part of the nest which you can pull out to do the peeking, probably best to make sure the parent out first, lol because there's no protection from them flying the wrong way out which I dont want especially with babies.

nice friend and nice breeding set up. I've seen similar peek holes and they do carry the risk of an adult getting out. You will just have to be careful. Good luck for a selective breeding season.
