Finished and moved in

Just sharing...
So I built an 8' wide x 12' long by 8' tall flight in my basement and got everyone moved in except for the Black & White Manikin pair and a pair of BCBB zebra's that have babes in the nest. The Black & White Manikin pair are in a flight that I am having a little trouble catching them in but as soon as I get them, in they will go. The zebras and societies settled right in on the food bowl and completely made a mess of it but they are now used to dining and dashing so the bowl is staying cleaner. Before I built it, I added a pair of parrot finches and two pairs of Gouldians to my collection and they are actually the bossier ones in there showing the zebras who is boss.
I painted everything black inside because I like they way their colors show up when the lights are on and also so I can see where I need to clean up.
