When I first began looking for a large bird cage for my two parakeets, I wasn’t sure how big it should be or whether my birds, Charlie and Sweetie really needed a larger cage.  So I started to ask friends in a chat room about what they thought.  One of them suggested that I look for “flight bird cages”.  I really didn’t know what that was, but she quickly told me that it was for my birds so that they could actually fly in the cage.This is the reason that it has that name.I know it was silly, but I didn’t know!  When I looked online, I couldn’t find exactly what I wanted right away.  So I decided to dedicate a site just to flight bird cages.

I have a lot of information about why birds really should be able to fly inside of a cage, rather than all the time just out of their cage in the house.  my birds have loved their new cage and really do seem much happier.  Some of my points of why this type of cage is the best for them are below.

Why I think Flight Bird Cages are best for birds:

My birds are a lot happier when they can fly around in their cage.  It keeps them much healthier because they can get their exercise whenever they want.  It keeps their little bodies strong!

They are a lot safer in their cage if there are other animals in your home, such as a cat or dog.When you are absent from the house a lot, you can be assured your birds will still be flying and happy.  One word of caution that I read somewhere, so use your own idea on this, don’t put your birds in a round cage because it doesn’t give them any points of reference and they will be confused.  That’s why a lot of bird cages probably are hexagon or at least have corners.

The right bird houses are perfect for breeding birds.I discovered that after Charlie and Sweetie started flying about in the bird cage, they began to mate.Just to make sure you understand that if you have had no luck with your birds mating, it might be because the birdcage they are in is not large enough.  Birds need to fly to breed!

It makes your pet bird feel free.  When it is warm outside, I make sure that their cage is outdoors once in a while.  I think when they whistle at the people that go by is a very funny and cute thing.When the unexpected person walks by, they smile and then giggle and my other friends howl with laughter.

You can clean the cage easier because of the room you have in it.  I found that the easier cages are to clean, they get changed and cleaned a lot more often.  Even my husband doesn’t mind cleaning it, and it takes less time than it used to with the smaller cage.

The flight bird cage I got for my birds is on a pedestal, so they are at eye level with us.  They love being able to be right there with us and talk to us a lot more often.This way the birds can be with us in a safe environment.I was able to move the cage to wherever we were, so the birds got in the habit of being with us.  Even with this larger cage for them, it still makes it so easy.Always remember, birds love to be in the family-unit also.

Just so you’ll know the size that I got for Charlie and Sweetie, remember they are parakeets.  Their cage is 32” width by 22” depth.  The height is 59”.  The flight cages are a bit more expensive than just the small little bird cages that you probably had when you first got your birds.  But believe me, Charlie and Sweetie are such happy, healthy and breeding birds now that they have their new birdcage.  I hope you will come back often, as I am going to be adding more info to this website.You can leave a few tips that you do with your birds, that way everyone will be educated.Please come back lots and thanks for your visit.
