Posted January 7, 201015 yr my budgie keeps getting stuck in the bars of his cage. it started when i started letting him out, when ever i put him back in his cage or he wants to come out he pushes his head through the bars and cant get out without getting upset and help. do i have to stop letting him out or has anyone got a better idea? do i need a new cage?
January 7, 201015 yr You need a new cage, the bar spacing should be no more than 1/2 inch. Agreed. Your cage is an issue.

Pictures please ? just measured it with a ruler (my perception of lenght is rubbish) and it was actually 2cm. currently looking for a new one now. its actually quite difficult to find a good quality cage that a budgie would like. its ridiculous that people are selling cages that arnt good for budgies.

The best cage for a budgie is a wider rather than a taller one, set up so they can fly across the cage. Here is a cage article we did here http://forums.budgiebreeders.asn.au/index....showtopic=17858 and the better of any cages for a budgie would be this one http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r145/ka...ame/cage1-1.jpg but adjusted so the perches go front to back on each side of the cage so the budgie can fly across the cage.
January 9, 201015 yr Author i got a cage its about the same size as his old one with 1cm spaced bars. its not bad. there was a liitle bit of protest from pimms at first but then i gave him some millet and he just settled down and is having a nap at the moment.
