What beautiful birds!
I have mine in an indoor aviary and they fly freely, but I would LOVE to be able to let them have access to outdoors.
I am trying hard to work something out as an extension so they can go out on good weather.

Very nice, May I ask what did you treat the wire with?

Sally they go to that branch every time I go into the aviary, furthest from me I guess lol.

FF, the wire was wiped over with vinegar
