Hello
Can any body help me where I can purchase wire fronts for breeding cages and also what would be a good size to make the cages
cheers

I got mine from the local bird place but I think Ive seen them on ebay and another auction site. Prices from the local bird place was $12 for the smaller and $15 the large ones.
When I was making cabinets I bought the fronts first and designed the cabinets around them. I posted pics here.

If I was able to change anything, I would add a some wood across the front to stop some of the seed escaping through the wire, this would have the added benefit of making the cabinets taller.

You can buy them from Lentra Direct BUT they also sell on ebay at as little as 40% of the price (I just bought their $15 fronts for $6 each by getting them via their ebay shop).

Don't remember how the prices stacked up as was a while ago

I made mine from fly screen aluminium frame all you need is a hacksaw and a mitre box . . obtain with corner inserts from hardware, and they can be made to fit any sized opening as against the 'standard' fronts

I live in a 'snake area' and the screen frames allowed me to pop rivet 6mm wire mesh . . the verticals of the traditional fronts would just be an 'open sesame' to carpet snakes

Hello to All,
Thank you for your help I will follow up the options some more pictures would be helpful with some sizes
Cheers
