thanks for the links.....
The trouble I am finding is that I would like a cage to sit on a table that we already have. This way it will be off to ground and away from our pup. The table is 381/2 " x 24 deep. To get the look we would like for the area we would like a cage about 35" long x 22" wide x 30 to 35" height. This way it will great for the birds to fly and still keep at a good location in the room.
I just joked with my husband and said perhaps he could make one it would be easier and he laughted and said to go a head and he would hold any tools I needed.....

He is such a funny guy....

He would need a table saw, drill and miter box, plus more tools.
Ever think of going to a cabinet shop and buy their BIG doors they don't need for about $5.00 each, saw out the centers or have them do it, maybe the center panels weren't put in yet, add wire and screw them together with the front as an old cage with doors. I've seen many doors you could turn sideways and get your dimensions. 4 sides becomes sides, a top and bottom side ways, and the ends are just the smaller doors. There's a few custom cage makers on Google.
I could Never find the size I needed, so I do it myself.
Good luck and I'll look.

I finally found a Canadian site that had what we were looking for

. Here it is for any other Canadian posters. They only ship within Canada
http://www.wctropicalbird.com/cages/par ... tcages.htm
I have ordered a cage that is 31.5" x 18" x 36" h. It was 89.00 Canadian and with shipping and tax the total was about $125.00 and for all the cages that we have seen around here that is a fair price. Looking forward to recieving it and getting ready to add more gouldians to our family.
