Posted February 17, 200916 yr well here is my babies home for now, i want a bigger one just unsure whether to use the garden shed behind the cage or make a new one in the same place as the cage is in now, wat you guys reckon
February 17, 200916 yr Hi I like the cage but I would definitly remove the nest boxes. Having only 2 boxes with tha tmany birds will cause many fights, especially because they are so close together.
February 17, 200916 yr The shed is a great option is favialble. It will give you so many more options. I agree - remove the nestboxes. Colony breeding = squabbles and death!!!
February 17, 200916 yr Agree with the others about the nestboxes. Also encourages any young birds in there to breed before they are of age Good that you are planning to have more space Welcome
February 17, 200916 yr Author thanks for the advice guys, the nest boxes will be removed as soon as the baby comes out of the box, only just put 5 more birds in there so it was never this full with originally only 2 pairs in there, the cat doest bother the birds if anything they tease him by flying to the bottom and running from one side to another lol so funny
February 17, 200916 yr lol... my birds used to do it to my cat too!!! Even with two pairs you can have awful problems. Good luck with them.
February 18, 200916 yr Author thanks for the info guys, im going to pull all the cock birds out of the cage only until the baby comes out of the box, then i am taking the boxs out till i make a new aviary
February 27, 200916 yr Author well i went over to my brother in laws place to drop off his kids i was baby sitting for him, when i looked out his back door and noticed he had an aviary that he wasnt using, asked him wat he was doing with it and he siad he was going to cut it up and throw it out, told him i would take it off his hands, i pick it up on sunday cant wait, will get pics when i bring it home, its a pretty big aviary as it is split into 3 section, all 3m by 3m square and about 2m tall with a door at each end

March 6, 200916 yr Author i was thinking about that, but i had to cut the aviary into pieces and to put it back together in gunna have to weld it all :S, so i was thinking seeing how i am in a rental house atm and i dont think that they would like it if i killed a big patch of grass i was thinking about making a few suspended cages off the ground, that way the grass will be okay plus the dogs cant annoy them as well lol not that they really do, wat do you reckon
