Very nice. That is the big version of mine.

Thats a great set up you have. When I finish school next year I want to have a big outdoor avairy to with my two original budgies and maybe some more in it but I have 2 questions: When your moving a budgie from avairy to avairy/free flight room how do you catch them and how do you get in and out without the budgies getting out because most avairys I have seen have the two door system?

Brilliant !! You must be very happy with that Its great that you got the version with the tin partway up the sides so no mice can get in

My birds are all quite calm and they know that i am not going to hurt them so they dont get scared when i enter the aviary they just sit happily on their perch and keep an eye on me i have a couple of budgies that when i am entering with carrot and apple they fly onto my hands to start picking at it before i am even in the cage! i love the little buggers my friends dont understand me they think im crazy? i think everyone on the bbc understands my love of budgies though!I picked this aviary up for $350 including 20 budgies i must admitt that the budgies were not in the best condition but i fixed them all up and now they are my best breeders!! You havent seen anything yet Kaz wait until you see the cabinets it has cost me around $300 to put the cages in and with the boxes and everything so i will keep you in suspence......... hopefully i can get the pics up tonight

WOW!! Thats a brilliant set up! I am jealous!! I look forward to seeing your breeding setup toooo!!!! ***Arrrrh SUSPENCE!!!!!*** hehe

Looks fantastic!!! Congrats and I can't wait to see MORE pictures!

Oh wow that's a lovely improvement!

oh wow, that is a nice aviary

wow,that looks great,so jealous!

Looks good Misslu, I agree with Kaz you made a great discission going with the one with the tin up from the ground to help keep mice at bay. I still think like Cara said that safety doors are always a plus, I don’t think you can always rely on birds being tame as a safety thing, luckily all my aviaries open into birds rooms, which makes it safe, but some of my birds are so tame it’s dangerous & as I walk out the door sometimes birds are landing on my back or head, as some just wont stay off of me when I’m inside the aviary.

* is jealous .....

* complety envious

* is going to Missy's place to steal it

 

It is awesome guys and wait to you see her set up

Glad you finally put the pics up mel

In the new aviary i only have the cabinets so they cannot escape when i come in and out and the other one is really easy to get in and for some reason they dont get scared when i come in and out of it?
