Its so nice hey Tricia?! I'm glad you bought birds from Jason & Jacquie... They are such great people, and they take SUCH great care of their birds. I was there a couple weeks ago and bought some products from them. I can't wait for that aviary!

Hey Dante,

I'm hoping end of Feb, maybe March. I have to do some saving up for it yet. And I absolutely will post pictures! I can't wait to see all the birds in it!

Hi Brady, just imagine how much nicer it will look filled with all your cuties! I mentioned to Jason that I met you on here when I picked up my birds, he said you are a super nice guy! He has been so great and continues to give me advice on a daily basis, really glad I found them and this forum! New birds and new friends :D - Tricia

Dante, I'm not sure how I'm going to decorate. I'm either going to buy those special reptile vines you can buy, as I have one aviary decorated with those and fake vines, plants and ferns all over. Either that, or I will get a tree of some sort, and put one giant tree in there. I want to leave lots of room for them to fly, but have some good branches to hang on too. It'll probably be my gouldian breeding aviary.

Hey Dee,

They got rid of all these aviaries. I'm buying mine from a fellow who bought 2 of them. I will post pictures when I get it all set up the way I want it.

Hey All,

Just an update, got my new giant glass aviary today finally after waiting 6 months!!! I'm so happy. Its apart in pieces in my livingroom and I have to try and figure out how this darn thing goes together! :shock: :shock: :shock:

If anyone can help me out, or knows where to find a picture of the aviary I'm talking about, the help would be greatly appreciated! Its made by companion habitats inc, but I can't find the specific aviary on their website. May have to email them for instructions!

Pictures to follow when I figure out how to get this darn thing set up!

Brady, that company may have made them for Petsmart as a custom order. Maybe they will be able to give you directions--I would imagine they keep a file on orders they have filled, in case they need to do more someday.

Thanks Sally.

I might have figured most of it out... At least I got the glass in, without breaking it!

Here's a pic.

They still have one of those in my local Petsmart. It was used to display larger hookbills, but has been sitting empty for months. Maybe I should ask if they are ever going to remove it.
