Hi, This is our Aviary it was built for my brothers eckys but we only had them for a short time so its been sitting there empty for ages and we brought a pair of budgies well they looked soooo tiny in there so i just had to buy some more (Laughing out loud).. how many more do you think i could keep in this. Theres plenty of room and plenty of branches to chew on.

 

I hope this isnt too big and it looks a bit blury cos my hubbys not home to fix them up for me so i have just had a play around with it myself

My Aviary is about that size and i have 20 budgies and 6 tiels in it. I feel my aviary is full at the moment. But thats just me - dont like to crowd them.

 

Budgies are flock birds so they don't mind lots of company

 

What are the measurements of your Aviary?

Nice aviary, could fit quite a few birds in there although more perches would be required

It has lots of branches in it now for perches and in the housing part is the feeders and I just picked up our new breeding cages and I have 2 breeding pairs in them already and one hen is very cosy in her new nexting box by the looks of things..

We concreted the floor so we dont have any foxes trying to dig there way in and also so i can hose it out to keep things clean and fresh.

I will get back to you on the measurements as im not sure

Looks great

Agree... looks great and the size is awsome. Can't see on the photo, but make sure you have a safety door to avoid any escapes...

The size of our aviary is 1.5 metres wide and 4.8 metres long and 2.4 high and the door on the back is only a small door so theres no escapes

Budgies and other birds do escape out of ordinary doors while you are entering. A good way to rig up a cheap and effective safety net for your door is....get one of those hanging mosquito nets on a hoop ( designed for over beds ) .....rig it up over top of your door. Step into the net area and then enter the door. Any quick thinking budgie who tries to escape will be caught in the net section before it gets too far. When not in use just unclip or unhook it or throw it up on top out of the way.

What a FANTASTIC IDEA!!! :hap:

Very nice aviary, I'd love to have an empty aviary of that size lying around .
