Hi all,
The time has come for an aviary build and 'surfing' the internet has brought me here.
I have two children who quite some time ago asked if we could have an aviary.
I made the excuse at the time that we would do it when finance better allowed.
Originally they thought they wanted parrots of some kind but after visiting a couple of bird sales previous years they decided finches would indeed be better.
The finance part is not going to change so when I was reminded again a few weeks ago I agreed I would do it this winter.
I had birds as a young teen, parrots and finches and vowed that I would one day return to finch keeping on a larger scale.
Minus the 'large scale' (that may never happen), I am in planning for a build to start asap.
I have a pre determined slab to work with and far to many ideas.
Lucky day today, got an offer to good to turn down, 3 normal Gouldian pairs of 3 head colours. Unfortunately they have been living together for some time in a small cage so this weekend will organize them some more space and they can have winter inside while I smash out this aviary.
I guess I will be starting a new topic soon, putting my ideas out there for an aviary build for you all here to scrutinise.
And then I guess build progress when the tools come out.
Cheer all for letting me join in.

:hi: Welcome to the forum.
When you have 5 published posts you will see all of the forum. There is quite a bit on aviary builds with lots of pics to give you ideas.
Once you see how many posts there are in these topics you will understand we all love aviary builds (with pics) of before during and after.
