Iv just this second had a look through that thread and to be honest - some of the cages look smaller than the one i was originally intending to buy!??

ok so because this is much bigger side to side this is a better cage to go for? i would go for the mansion style cage but its 200cm high which is not far off the size of the bloody floor-ceiling measurement!

Height - 165 cm Length - 93 cm Width - 69 cm or again is this too small? bare in mind the length is across the front and the width is from front to back.

how come everybody else on other forums aswell has said the cage is fine then!?!?

This cage comes complete with two stainless steel feeding bowls and perches. It has parrot safe door openings and the cage is made from wrought iron so is very durable and is oven baked powder coated in non toxic paint. It also has a slide out tray for easy cleaning and is mounted on castors for easy moving. Bar spacing is 22mm. A perfect home for your African Grey. PERFECT FOR AFRICAN GREY OR SIMILAR SIZED BIRDS Dimentions: Height - 162 cm Length - 72 cm Width - 55 cm

yeah well the pet shop is at the back of a JJB sports gym and the owner said you always get meatheads coming in going "can i buy this parrot" without even asking any minor details about the bird simple things like age, is it clipped, has it been sex'd etc.

yeah ebay does seem relatively well prices for cages, some are collection only but the new buys include a price on postage which is usually around £17 for a good sized cage. I just dont enjoy being ripped off, some places on ebay etc sell the same cage as an internet shop but they are upto £100 cheaper!!

hey everybody, iv been toying with the idea of getting a grey for about 2-3 years now. The guy who owns the local petshop has 4 parrots of his own amongost dogs/cats and other birds he keeps at home. The guys really cool and knows his stuff, every now and again he gets a grey in that somebody doesnt want or he gets them from a breeder and hand rears them from young. At the moment he has a 15 week old grey in which is lovely, its a congo with a nice red tail.. quite a character aswell - it bit me yesterday when i had a hold because some Chav came running into the back of the shop and started shouting all kinds at the bird "ahhh lad is dat ur bird" etc then the owner proceeded to tell the guy no it wasnt for sale, even though it was - which i thought is a great sign he wont just sell to anybody. can any of you suggest somewhere to buy a cage from at an affordable price? iv seen loads on ebay/different websites and the prices for the same cage can vary massively!!
