Guest Netty Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 *click click* How does that cage look :confused: I want a fair size cage for daytime. Anyone have one of these, Pros/Cons??? My hubby likes that one and since he is buying the cage i generally want to give him what he wants that will be good for our baby, with AS MUCH SPACE as we can give him/her.

My hubby likes that one and since he is buying the cage i generally want to give him what he wants that will be good for our baby, with AS MUCH SPACE as we can give him/her. I had one similar to that and got rid of it for two reasons. One is because the grate and tray are removed from the back so I had to spin the cage everytime I cleaned it. The second is because it wouldn't fit out the door so I couldn't take it outside to hose it down for super cleaning. My replacement cage is still a good size but it will fit out the door.

Guest Netty Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 Hosing it off isn't an issue with us as I clean things pretty much daily and steam clean weekly. The only thing I see being an issue with what you have said for us is the tray pulling out from the back (moving things around is a PITA...).

Ray P Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 My wife likes to move things around and from time to time Corky will find herself in differant parts of the room. With a corner cage there may be a limit as to where you can place it. It looks like a great cage and nice size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 It is a big roomy cage but having to pull it out and turn it around to remove the tray for cleaning would be a PITA as you stated and I have to agree with Ray about placement problems as a corner cage is best in a corner and that may not be what works at any given time, you can place a regular square or rectangle type cage most anywhere. My favorite type of cage is the split level that has a playtop on one side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvparrots Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 That is a very nice looking cage and if you have a space problem its great and, of course, if you don't mind moving it around to be cleaned that is. Personal preferences is what you need to think about. I thought about a cage like this because I have three parrots, but having to leave it in a corner only... stopped me. Good luck with your choice.

Guest Netty Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 My hubby wants the cage to be in the corner of the living room so thats why we were thinking corner cage (lots of space with minimal wall take-up, and he likes their design) I have only had rectangles and dome top rectangles. I think i can get over pulling it out from the wall to clean it as it is a "space-saver" kinda cage. I'll poke around a few other places and see if i can find some other ones (that wont be a PITA to clean lol its to bad they don't make corner cages with a front pull out >_>) My play stands are always separate from the cage. and I make my own. (you should see the design for the grey play stand OHHH lordy is this bird gunna be spoiled LMAO!) I make most, if not, all of my own toys as well i will post some stuff fin the DIY homemade toy place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like it has two pull out trays in the front: http://www.windycityparrot.com/zoomify.asp?catalogid=869&img=assets/images/products/graphics/00000001/AE_C4242.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vumes Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 Netty, I know this is an older thread, but did you get that corner cage? I ask because I was recently asked if I wanted to purchase that same HQ corner cage for a very low price, and I am debating on getting it. If you did get it, how do you like it? Thanks.

animalINSPIRED Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 I have that corner cage! I love it very much. Averi has tons of room and utilizes all of it. She flaps and flies and plays and has ample room. My trays pull out of the front, so no trouble with moving it to clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vumes Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 Have any pics that show the whole cage and your Grey in it? I just want to get an idea of how much room there is. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vumes Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 Very nice! Thanks for the pics. We actually drove 150 miles each way to get this yesterday. We got a REALLY good deal on it. We only paid $200 for it (plus the $65 in gas). We put it together and it truly is huge. I'm glad we decided to get it though. Thank you for your input, and thank you for posting the pics. This is truly a great cage. I noticed you have another cage in the background. Do you have another bird? Our other cage is similar to your other cage, but we have 2 Greys. Maybe we need another corner cage. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
animalINSPIRED Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 That was actually our foster cockatoo's cage. He was with us last winter until he was adopted. We are in the process of getting a second Grey though. We are thinking we may have to go with another corner cage. We love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vumes Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 Agreed. I might have to look for another as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eshana Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Does anyone have links to corner cages that have the litter tray pull out in the front? This is perfect for my apartment space, unfortunately I am disabled and pulling the cage around all the time would be a pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vumes Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Here is the link to one. It is pricey, but can be found at other places a bit less expensive. I have found that the HQ Corner Cages pull out in the front. You can see by the pic the 2 trays that pull straight out. HQ Corner Cage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
