When my GBs had babies a few months back, I worried the whole time they were growing, that they would be finished their adult molt before their new owner came to get them, and I would't know them from their parents. (I'm too scared to band these little guys.) So I wanted to build or buy another cage to be able to move any juvenile birds to, if I couldn't send off to new homes yet.
Decided against making a cage, just too much work and too messy. But I found this place by googling, and here's the cage I got (except mine is black). It came flattened, so it was possible to take it home on the bus, thanks to my sister helping me by carrying the stand and tray, and I carried the cage.
West Coast Tropical Bird Store - Cages
It's almost the same size (just a bit smaller) as the cage I have now, so plenty of room to temporarily house my babies when needed. And it was on sale, so was cheaper than the one I built myself. Can't wait to get it put together and get some plants and perches in it. I already have lots of feeders, so all I really need to get is another light. And I'll need to put a drop down door on the front of the tray. (I'll do it with cable ties, like I saw someone do with their HQ cage. Can't recall who that was just now, but it looks like the easiest way to do it on a metal cage.)
And when I stumble upon the right pair of gouldians, or if by some miracle a pair of strawberries... well, I'll have plenty of room for them! Hope she who thinks birds belong outside doesn't see this post.
