Wonderful! Regular progress reports with photos would be great! Everyone always wants to see how it's done, so if they ever get the chance, they will have some ideas already.

Indeed, I'd love to see photos!

My husband keeps talking about turning our bird room (a bird-safe office/den type of room where the cages are located) into a *real* bird room; an indoor aviary of sorts.
I keep blowing him off as I can't envision exactly what would need to be done and have no idea where we would begin! But perhaps some inspiration will help!
I had an idea of putting up shelving units or brackets and connecting 8 to 10 of those 30x18x18 breeder cages to make a giant bird cage "tube" that runs along the wall.
Plus a bunch of potted plants for fun free-fly time.
But that's all I got. LOL
Humum to....

Ugh!! Things aren't moving fast enough! Hubby is still working on framing. Will post photos once the framing is done.
