My new 1m long flight cage.

Well the owner of the pet shop sed that it was big unuff for 4 pairs of finches .

Thanks Nathan

Nathan you will need to learn that some people stretch the truth to get a sale!! This is the kind of thing this Forum is here for, ask questions, There are a lot of experienced breeders on here.

I am only new to breeding finches,but all the info i have got tells me that putting to many birds in a cage/avairy ect will put stress on the birds which will lead to fighting and health problems..
The best advice i get is from this site,i have made lots of mistakes but i hope i have learnt from them.

definatly not big enough for four pairs Nathan, it could hold four pair of zebbies but no breeding would take place. A good way to look at it , is to get three mates and go lock all four of you in the toilet , you will have no room to move freely, just like the birds . Like Buzz said (cant believe I agree With him ) sales people will tell you just about anything to get a sale....research my boy research. But it should make a good sale cage when the time comes to sell some....pete

Also i research before i get any birds/cabinets ect.
When i first started i wanted Gouldians,longtails but people on this site said i would be better to start out with easy to care for finchers like Zebras,Society,canarys and thats what i have.
When i get lots more experience i will get the more fancy finchers.

The fella at the pet shop has taken advantage of you Nathan .
Can you take it back for a refund ? or are you happy to just have 1 pair in there ?
We have all been told some whoppers by people trying to get our $$$$ from us . It pays to research and ask questions before buying at times and as said we are always here to help you .

It's a really nice cage,
It's like the ones you see in the pet shop only bigger.

Thanks Nathan

The cage could hold 4 pairs as a temporary holding cage for a while, but for breeding it's only suitable for 1 pair of finches.

If your not sure, post or search on here before you buy birds, equipment that way you get advice before maybe buying the wrong thing.

[jusdeb]

OK well you can make a nice little home for a pair of finches in it then .
Cant see them not being happy in there . Good luck and dont forget photos .
Don't forget to ask before giving away your money to pet shops OK ...we will help you as best we can .


Oh are you into woodwork ? Maybe you could build your own cages . Something to think about .
