Need some more room, This will be a slow project,As I am waiting on some cheap steel before i do much more.Just missed out on some gal 25x25 rhs for $7 a 6.5 metre length.This will be only a small bank 6m x 9m,with half suspendeds half conventional aviarys.Am looking at building them 1.2 w x 3 to 4 long.with a walk way front and back,Or maybe just front.The feeding nesting area will be suspended,And a small area with natural earth(river sand)

Gotta love steel at the right price....only way to build these size aviaries yourself without getting another mortgage.
nothing wrong with slow and steady either....
waiting for next progress report....good luck with the build.
half suspended sounds interesting....better keep those pics coming.
still waiting to see those firetail aviaries!!
