The makings of my flight cage...
So here are some images of the making of my flight cage... the space it's going "live" really. It will be 68" wide x 46" tall by 20" deep. The top of this cabinet is open (for ventilation). The cage itself is still being built (by Affordable Custom Cages in Ely, NV). Check it out: http://jonverde77.vpweb.com/current-project. Anyway, I'm taking it slow, doing a lot of research and purchasing the best seed, supplements, etc. (all recommended by this forum and by the books I've read). Enjoy the pics! PS, my flight cage should be here around Sept. 17th.... SUPER Excited!

Hello again!
Here are some pics of my cage in its final state (before it gets shipped to me from Ely, NV). I will probably have it next week...and then the real fun starts!!

Re: The makings of my flight cage...
The cage can hold 8-10 finches, but I'm going to stay at 8 (so I don't overcrowd). I'm going to have 2 goldians, 2 owl finches and 2 cordon blues!
Can't wait!

Re: The makings of my flight cage...
I have arrived!! Or should I say, my finches have arrived. I'm so excited to introduce to you my new little finch family. Today, I purchased 2 gouldians, 2 owls, 2 cordon blues, and 2 greenback twinspots! All are happy and settling into their new home.
Check it out!

Re: The makings of my flight cage...
DAAAAYUUUMMMM!!!! I am really jealous of your flight cage! that's like... an excellent substitute for a TV!
personally I would also add canaries there, they would love the indoor environment and their singing makes your living room (or whole house) more lively... but this is your cage, you decide ^_^
oh btw, I'd like to befriend you on facebook so I can comment on the pics

Re: The makings of my flight cage...
That is awesome! I had thought a while back about doing that inside an old entertainment center that we no longer have a TV for. It is the type that has a bridge and we took the bridge out and slid the end pieces together as a sort of holder for CDs, DVDs and knick knacks, etc. It is even already lighted. But, that never happened and I got flights instead.
