Posted September 22, 200816 yr My Dad and I are planning on making one when a friend of him gave him a web address. These are great plans and this is what we are going to use to make mine. Enjoy http://www.javafinch.com/buildhospital/hospitalndx.html
September 22, 200816 yr I have had more success with the one my dad made than the one shown in that link. The ones with heat under and designed the way they are can build up heat. Here is the one my Dad made and maybe another option for you http://forums.budgiebreeders.asn.au/index....l=hospital+cage
September 22, 200816 yr That looks like the one another member made from here ????? I love how the lamp is hidden
September 22, 200816 yr Author Thanks Kaz all the ones I had seen had the light under the floor so never thought of hanging one. Hmmm now more research needed but yours looks sweet.
September 22, 200816 yr My hubby grows baby cacti inside in a heated germination box - it's lovely and cozy warm on the top so I now sit a wooden hospital cage on it and there is no bright lights so the bird can rest peacefully.
September 22, 200816 yr Author Smart Idea Liv. I found one for sale but it was $200 and same idea as the link I posted and I am not going to pay that for something I can Build under $100 but it does give me an idea. I have a friend who is great with building things (he is a builder by trade and helped me with my breeding room) maybe see how much it will cost for him to build them and see how cheap we can make them so if anyone is close to me and wants one I will see if I can do them as cheap as possible. He is also going to have a look at a breeding Box Pippi and I picked up over the weekend and see about making them if he can I am going to get him to make me a set of about 10 and phase my cages out I think....
September 22, 200816 yr If you installed the light in the top behind a piece of dark perspex(heat safe) it would allow heat but lessen the light
October 28, 200816 yr Yes that is the same one that I have made, off the same web site. I love it and have saved some of my best birds. But if I was to make enother one I would make it a litle bit deeper and put wire on the front so If the bird was only a little bit sick you could take the glass off oe pull it up a bit. Here is mine
