Rectangle is definately the best! the birds can fly from one end of the cage to the other, and also horizontal bars for climbing

thats exactly what my cage is like

I think rectangle ones r best bcuz they give off alot of space!

Usually the ones that look like REAL houses r the ones that take up the most space with the decoration(windows, etc.) to make it pretty!!!

i dont think the roofs are good on house ones, like when they have slopes

& it would probably b easier 4 them 2 get hurt in those house built ones!

i know and i think the odd shped roof would make them uncomfortable

EXACTLY!

I think rectangle or dome. Here it is very hard to find a decent sized cage with narrow bar spacing. They are all much taller than wide. I have finally settled on one that is mostly square, but part of the top is dome-shaped, and it opens up. It is still taller than wide, but it is large. Rainbow loves it because he can come and go as he pleases... :(

could you get a picture up?

I like rectangular because of the above reasons. They do need the room, b/c they aren't helicopters (budgies can't fly vertical). :o

I don't know how I've missed this-please don't think I was ignoring you. I can't get a picture up yet, but the cage is 24" x 18" x 32 or 36" (I can't remember the height and they're sleeping now so I can't measure), and the top dome part can be opened and just slides down. There is a nest box door towards the rear of the cage on the side, and the front door opens and uses the lock as a brace, so the door becomes a horizontal platform of sorts that they can land on to go in, but they usually just go in through the top. I have one for Rainbow, Skittles, and nest box, and had to go out and get another one for the first clutch of babies. When the second bunch fledge, I guess I'll need a third one. :D:):(

you've just confused me more now.. :D

Mine must be little acrobats!

they can fly up, down, backwards, and hover like a hummingbird.

They pole dance on the swing.

and climb their ladder upside down, going in and out of the rungs.

All in All, Very athletic...... :)

I know, mine do the same with the ladder and can fly up, down, backwards, and forward!!

Silly lil' things!

i have a rectangle one but in a house shape. sky loves it when he come out and slides down the little slopes on either side. they only about 3 cm long but he enjoys it. small things amuse him though.

ATD

i like rectangular ones with flat tops so they can sit up there and thats where i put greens and such.
