Choosing the Right Bird Cage
Along with a good diet, the right bird cage is one of the most important factors in ensuring your bird's health and longevity. Unfortunately, cages are too often an afterthought for some new parrot owners and the primary concern is with getting something cheap rather than finding the most appropriate cage for their new bird.
Here are things you need to consider when choosing a cage:
Cage Size - All things being equal, the larger your bird's cage, the happier it will be. Since people's ideas of "large enough" are entirely subjective, we created a handy chart listing cage size requirements for different types of birds. Please note the recommended bar spacing as well, since inappropriate bar spacing can be unsafe for your bird.
Cage Shape - There are many different types of cage styles, including dometop, playtop, corner cages, etc. For the most part, the type of cage you choose will depend on your own preference, but there are certain cages that are just inappropriate as anything except decoration. Avoid round cages, and cages that are tall but too skinny.
Cage Material - Stainless steel cages are the highest quality material you can buy, but these can be quite pricey. On the opposite end of the spectrum are cheap little cages with flimsy bars that are coated in plastic that a bird can easily chew off. The most popular compromise is a powder-coated cage. Cages made of decorative materials are also not appropriate for housing birds.
