Here It Is!

A ceiling shot

looking down the aviary

The rock pool where they can bathe (supervised only) or just laze on a rock and nibble the foliage

One of the feeding trays, easily removed for cleaning and replenishing

and finally the outside view (modelled by one of my young friends )

Hope you like it! My budgies seem to

That is so wonderful. I would love to have something like that someday. Your birds look absolutely tiny.

oh my oh my! well its no wonder teapot thinks hes the king of the castle! he has his own palace and some lovely royal subjects to share it with! even a pool and buffet! what more could a budgie wish for!

what room of the house do you have it in? also, i was wondering what food is on the middle plate on the feeding tray? looks yummy.

definitely the most impressive indoor aviary i have ever seen. good job!

I think I'm going to come and live with you - even your birds live in a style I'd like to become accustomed to

teapot is glad you approve! On the middle saucer is crumbled wholemeal toast. grated carrot, and I think it was scrambled eggs (must have been breakfast time) You are right, you did see a bluey/lilacy budgie, in there is Teapot, Snowy, Baby, Wriggly and patch, (Laughing out loud)! The aviary is in the sunroom at the back of the house, its a big room, still have furniture and a 3 piece conservatory suite in there (though its not a conservatory) The Tiels dont share the aviary, I got them one of their own :(Laughing out loud): Its as tall, not as long, but wider. The love it! I didnt want them feeing intimidated by the budgies, and couldnt leave them out, so I had one built for them too.

I am very pleased with the aviaries, want a few more toys (on order from our very own mr FeatheredPets)

I have a mister from 24parrot.com, which I pressurise up, poke through the top of the aviary, and low and behold, i can get some jobs done while the birdies flip and flap and delight under their auto-shower/mister. One more thing I want to do, is get a grape vine or something similar growing in their aviaries, to take them that little bit closer to nature again. price wise, the large aviary cost £105, the smaller one cost £85. I wouldnt class them as suitable for outside use, but magnificent indoors. They didnt come with flooring, I just bought an off cut of lino for £19.99 and that did both aviaries nicely. The mister was £19.99, the birdy rock pool (just a common outdoor birdbath/table) was ten pounds. The feeder tray was 79pence, (Laughing out loud)

Am glad you like it! Those who want to move in can do so with pleasure, providing you take your turn at being on your hands and knees disinfecting the aviary floors twice a day :(Laughing out loud):

Lawks Bea, Im not sure! Ages! Teapot is still the leader of the pack though, and still likes to come round the house on my shoulder. he's still as tame as ever (and as rude, :(Laughing out loud)
