I'd definitely look at an alternative. I used to have one of the Pervue steel carriers and it was so damn heavy I scrapped it for steel when I found these aluminum carriers. Got any ideas?

I am looking (for two years) for the Kings Cages aluminum travel cages that were discontinued by KingsCages during the pandemic. I have the medium one that we use as Huey's sleep cage since the big baby cannot sleep by himself (with the other birdies) in the aviary. He has to be next to momma otherwise he chews his feet. I have also moved Greycie into the bedroom on my side as she has night panics. It's terrifying to hear her thrashing around in her big cage and I'm sure one day I will lose her, so she now sleeps on a perch next to us. The problem now is, she has figured out how to flop into the bed in the middle of the night, sometimes I notice and put her back, sometimes I wake up with a Grey sleeping on my forehead. This is too dangerous so we are looking for a sleep cage for her. Below is what I'm after. I have had a CL and Farcebook MarketPlace watch for a couple of years and a few have popped up. Either they are too far away and won't ship or the one local I tried to snag got sold out from under me before I could get there. Let me know if you know anyone looking to sell!

Thanks Greytness. I had one of those Prevue carriers before I discovered the Kings Cages. It got scrapped, way too heavy. I'm hoping I don't have to resort to one of those again.

Chewys has some travel cages that might work for you. Amazon has some comparable cages as well. I also saw this one: https://www.parrotsrus.net/store/TRAVEL-CARRIER-for-Small-and-Medium-Birds-By-Prevue-Pet-p537471600?gad_source=1

OK, I was just seeing if I had it right! I will keep on the lookout near me!

That is the cage. THat page is either a scam or severly out of date. Check out the delivery date: 2020/08/28. THat date isn't written the way we write dates here in 'merica so it looks very fishy to me.

Wow, I just saw the prices, they are expensive! Is this what you are looking for? Or too small? Kings Cages Aluminium Parrot Travel - All Parrots Fertile Eggs

Wow, I had no idea they weren't making them anymore! That is Timber's full time cage (per vet) since he is not considered handicapped. I'd better take better care of it. I'll keep my eyes open.

Aww.. okay. Oops, I never even looked at how small it was LOL Are you set on a kings? Just curios, why not a different brand?

You must be outside my 500 mile max marketplace search limit. I check the measurements, that's the small one. Not sure I would sleep a Grey in that one. Good for trip to the car/vet etc!

It is on my FB marketplace.

Sorry, I can't help as I'm on the wrong side of the pond. Didn't realise that line of travel cages has been discontinued though. It's a shame, I have the medium sized one for Alfie for when I take him out and it's a brilliant cage.

Talon, where did you find that? That might be the smallest version they used to make.

Wow I'm so sorry you both had to go through that with him but am really happy Jako managed to survive. I wonder if you can slowly transition him away from the dependency on the syringe feeding. Maybe start by using the same food from the syringe but try offering it from a spoon instead. Then maybe transition from spoon to a bowl with you holding it. Lots of encouragement and praise every time he takes that next step. Once he's eating from a spoon or a bowl you might be able to try offering other soft foods for him to try. Mashed sweet potatoes, for example. Others have made some great suggestions with types of food to try. If that's all working then maybe try and transition to his regular food bowl. If you find a food he REALLY likes then maybe only offer it from the regular food bowl (whether that's in his cage or on a playstand). You'll obviously have to move at his pace for this and it might take a while to move him on to the next step or next little win. Lots of fuss, praise and encouragement will be your friend. Even if he just touches a new food and doesn't actually try some, make a big deal out of it. But obviously read his cues and if he's not comfortable or not progressing, take a step back and try again another day. I'm by no means an expert but that's probably how I would approach it if I was in that situation.

At quick search, I found this , is this something you are looking for? King’s Cage ALUMINUM Travel Bird Cage Blue Lightweight 14 x 12 x 15 LIKE NEW VERY NICE BARELY USED $225 · In stock

Oh my! I have one of my greys in my bedroom at night. She suffered from night terrors & would end up falling onto the bottom of her cage during the night. I put a thick folded towel on the bottom to soften her fall and a nigh light next to her cage with her covering open on the sides so she can see during the night. That seems to have helped her get thru the night with no episodes. I will search for you on my marketplace & if ZI find one, I would be happy to get it & send it to you. Would you want a travel cage for him at night? Or is that too small?
