I have a few pairs in cabinets, there is ups and downs to it though as I prefer the aviary because of the better breeding results but also don't like it because zebras will breed with anything they come across, eg: sister, brother, father, mother, cousin etc.
The good thing about cabinets for them is that you can individually choose the zebras you want to breed without them doing it for you. What I don't like about cabinets is that the birds don't get much space to fly in as they would in an aviary which can lead to obesity and poor health. So make sure when you think they have finished breeding or when you want them to stop that they have a back up aviary to put them in to get the excerice and rest they need.
The size of one of my cabinets is 60cm long 32cm wide and I'm not sure about the height though.
Hope this helps.

Hello.
I have just started out breeding finches,i have Zebras sitting on 4 eggs and should hatch in about 6 days.
Zebras are great as they are easy to look after and breed,but they still need clean water and seed and some greens to keep them looking good.
I just put some hay and tissue paper in the cabinet and they built a nest.
