JDS5607 Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Evening One of Sully's verticle bars popped at the weld. Anyone have any suggestions on how to fix it? He's found it, and has already began to pluck it... oh boy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave007 Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 The only thing to do is to have it rewelded back together. There's no other wiring that will keep the 2 pieces together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tagtastic Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 For the time being you could criss-cross 2 zip ties around the horizontal bar it attaches to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would last about 2 seconds if that long, I agree with Dave that it will have to be welded back or a new cage will have to be bought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? I've had two of Marcus' perches zip-tied to his cage for forever. The one is a small maple (not one of the toxic varieties, we checked!) that my husband felled and stripped and it stretches the length of the cage, and the other is a perch that I don't have washers for (that fit the bars, anyway). Marcus has never shown any interest in the zip ties at all, but I guess he might just be a laid-back kind of guy or something, in this regard anyway. Hope everything works out for Sully in the end with the cage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he had shown interest in those zip ties believe me he would have destroyed them in no time at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hehe, I meant "Really?" in the sense that some other Greys might find the zip ties totally alluring. Considering what Marcus has done to other random objects around the birdroom I know he'd make short work of the zip-tie if he wanted to! And JDS5607, I hope the welding works out without a hitch... at least you don't have to get a whole new cage.
