Posted February 28, 200817 yr The plan was to build my 'big aviary' in the fernery after the renovations were done, but the other day dad and I were having a chat over feeding the animals and we came up with a brilliant idea (I think it's brilliant anyway ). Turn our spa into an aviary! (it's not as strange as it sounds, really.) We have an 8 seater spa set in a gazebo type structure, which we don't have any time to use and so we've been meaning to sell it (though with the drought we might have a few difficulties). This is what it looks like: The photos don't really do it justice, it is massive, plus it will need alot of work and probably won't get done for many months or years. But I'm still very excited and have been making plans in my head for days! :(Laughing out loud):
February 28, 200817 yr sounds like a wonderful idea! thats how my aviary was constructed kind of... onto the frame of part of our add on pergola Works well!
February 28, 200817 yr WOW what a fantastic idea!!! It will be HUGE!!! hope it doesn't take too long to build
February 28, 200817 yr sounds like a great idea, hope you can sell the spa so you can start working on it.
February 28, 200817 yr What a brilliant idea. It's going to be MASSIVE!!! I hope you get to start it very soon... please post pictures as you do it.
February 28, 200817 yr What a fantastic idea and so very supportive of your Dad too. Cant wait to see how it all looks. You could have 100 budgies in there !! :hap:
February 28, 200817 yr Author Thanks guys, I can't wait and am very excited. I've start picking out spots for toys, and I stand there thinking "I could put a perch from here to here and some rope there" But I shouldn't get too carried away because it won't happen for a while yet! . Though I may try and get grandpa in on it and we can start a bit earlier, the only problem is we will need to move the spa when we sell it, so I don't want to do most of it up, only to have to rip it down again. You could have 100 budgies in there !! :hap: That was definitely the first thought that popped into my head! :(Laughing out loud):
February 28, 200817 yr Wow Bec! That is going to be absolutely amazing!!! We will all be turning very green and your birds will be SO happy. Feathers. (Don't forget a safety door in your plans)
February 29, 200817 yr WOW ..... * Green with Envy ... It will be the Aviary of all Aviaries ...... FOOD FOR THOUGHT --- You could always take the spa out so you can get started then sell it later Edited February 29, 200817 yr by neatabudgie
March 1, 200817 yr Author I'll swap the budgies to go in the aviary for the spa!! Done deal, (Laughing out loud).Though we may have a bit of an issue with transport, plus the fact that the gazebo isn't ready for budgies yet *forlorn sigh* .WOW ..... * Green with Envy ... It will be the Aviary of all Aviaries ......FOOD FOR THOUGHT --- You could always take the spa out so you can get started then sell it laterI wish we could, but we really have no where to keep a huge spa . (I already bought it up with dad).
