Parrot cage?

flashy · 14-02-2009, 19:21

i've just got a parakeet, he's a lot bigger than a budgie but a bit smaller than a parrot, he came with quite a large cage....BUT i want a bigger one

does anyone know where i can buy a large parrot cage from, i dont want to pay a fortune for one though (although i may have to)

one that stands on the floor would be ideal, although this cage is extremely suitable for him i would feel better if he had a LOT more room

any advice would be helpful

Cheers

Try Freecycle Flashy, you never know....

I once went into an old mill near Skipton in 1976, and they sold parrot cage bottoms, a great pile of them, and nothing else, for only twenty pence.

I hope this might be of some help to you.

pmsfl, cheers for that Gary

Caz, i will ask on freecycle, thats if i dont get rollocked again for posting on there(dont ask)

garinda · 14-02-2009, 19:32

Have you tried asking the bird?

He might be able to tell you of somwhere that sells them.

HAHAHAHAHA, he doesnt say anything, all he does is whistle...which is hilarious when i whistle back and we are whistling for about 5 minutes none stop

he's taken a liking to my Ryvita too, and brown toast

Could'nt resist it.

Try the Range at Blackburn, they have a large pet area and if they havent got one maybe they would order you one

flashy · 15-02-2009, 08:10

ah i never thought about the Range, i'll have a wander down on my bike today and see if they have any in, cheers

Clitheroe Auctions on a wednesday evening

My mum and dad went recently and saw HUGE parrot cages going for a small fraction of what they were worth. They are second hand but some of them were in excellent condition and went for next to nothing

second hand would be good

Its the same place as the Sunday Car Boot, you might be able to pick up a bargain there
