February 24, 200916 yr Have you had any issues with your cocky? I never had a probem with my 'budgie galah' bothering my birds but he developed a nasty habit of fidding with the holding and breeding cages I had in the big aviary (which aren't in there any more but you saw where they were) and I had to take him out as he was being 'disruptive'
March 4, 200916 yr Author thanks guys im going to put a little coffe tabble and a chair in their when i move the cocky only comes in when im in the aviry as does my dog we all spend time together in their while i klean boxes sweep floor was dishes change water so on usually 3 to 4 hours a day i spend in their and sometimes longer the birds come down to me to say hi most think im a big bird i think lol i quiet often go have a snooze in their i was going to invest in a hammick but decied id just get a bean bag instead a leather one i can remove when i leave i do alot of writting in their and take my mp3 and ear phones andjust chill out it will be much nicer when i move in a month and bit so i will post pics of the changes i make birds do love it im very happy i really love spendig time with all my animals in their
March 4, 200916 yr That is so cool! I love the lips on the door too. Great idea for keeping the door safer I bet sitting in there is so relaxing

May 17, 201014 yr Thats a good setup, I had sketched something similar while thinking of what aviary I might like. Did the brand new shed come with the wire part? Or is it just a few panels missing and some mesh? What were the measurements and how many birds do you reckon you could fit in there as a maximum? Its strange how nothing was dying in the cooler whether and now they are Very strange indeed

Its clever well my breeding cages will be going back in their only i will be wireing of a portion to stop birds from annoying the breeders the benefit of breeding in my aviary was that everyone kept chattering incoraging breeding behaviour in all stock
