Aviary time

Recommended Posts

How many of you Grey owners have an aviary? We have one that is an 8' wide octagon. In it are natural branches, rope perches and a boing, big-link plastic chain, and a few toys. My Grey, Kali, absolutely loves it out there, and it's a safe place for him to be outside. Today I cut palm fronds for shredding and put a few new toys in. He had a fabulous time, out for about 6 hours. He goes out there up to three times a week, rotating with our Macaw. I almost always cut fresh bird-safe branches (hibiscus, bamboo, palm, banana) which are one of Kali's favorite shredding toys.

 

Of course, we're lucky that we have year round mild weather!

It sounds like your birds love it out there. I don't have an Aviary right now...but when I buy a home of my own I will probably build one. My grey goes outside with me almost every day and he loves to play on the bed cover of my dads truck.

 

I'd love to see some pictures of you aviary.

I'll try for two photos here - one from the old house where it was set up on a concrete pad. We moved it (of course!) when we came to this house over two years ago, and now it's set on grass. The birds never go to the bottom anyway, and now I have a well-chewed Areca palm planted inside.

I'm having trouble finding the newer photo, so maybe I'll take another one soon. At least this gives you an idea.
