After some initial issues, my female is now tolerating my male and they seem to be living in harmony! A neighbour of mine was given a huge cage for her 60th birthday from her family, though they were not to know that she actually dislikes birds even though she has one budgie in a cage in her lounge room! The boxes are unopened but she tells me that the cage is 100cm long, 60cm deep and 180cm high (and has a roof) and she is offering me this cage for $5! It's been sitting in her shed for 2 or 3 years and she wants it gone ASAP and since I got my two budges, she thought I would be interested! I am keen to take it, however I want to know if the size is okay and if it truly is suitable for 2 or 4 budgies without them becoming cramped or limiting their ability to fly. I have a huge enclosed balcony that is completely weatherproof and secure so I was hoping to put it there. Also, if I were to buy 4 male budgies (adults, so I know they are 100% male), would they all get along okay? I absolutely do not want babies so I wont buy a female. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! Link to comment

I haven't seen the box it's in as my husband will need to go over and collect it from her shed (good luck with that!!). I think I will get it - and have fun decking it out with new budgies and toys! Budgie owning is becoming very addictive it seems! Thanks for your help. Link to comment

I have put mesh across the middle bit so they get more flying. Mine is 60 times 100 times 150cm. It would be 180 with the roof and counting the grid. It's great and has 5 budgies in there!
