Custom Built Parakeet Bird Cage Enclosure Hand made

[Whirlpooley]

The only thing missing is bumpy perches. If they stand all their lives on straight perches, they develop feet problems. But this is a great cage!

[cisconicklez]

That's a kickass budgie cage how much to make you know materials what type wood dimensions

[jacob9853109]

Amazing! You've got talent! How much did that project cost to build?

[zainzulfiqar]

How much did it cost you to make the cage? I want to make one 4 feet long by 2 feet tall

and 2 feet deep for my Indian ringneck parrot.

[zainzulfiqar]

Hi where can I buy the clear glass or Plexi glass from? And how much is it cost?

[TheBellaMinnie]

you should put a mirror in there .. they loveee mirrors <3 and a branch swing .. very nice cage tho :)

[happyinlove97]

What kind of screening is on the top? I'm afraid that my birds will chew through it if it's not sturdy enough. Thanks for sharing this because I'm planning on making something like this for our birds.

[Cherokeekid304]

@happyinlove97 It is metal screening. I have a video of how what I use and how I do it on my channel

[ALhorses099]

wow that cage is amazing, your right, there old cage is to small, awesome birds luv budgies

[Budgieluv1]

wont the stain or the paint kill them?

[Cherokeekid304]

@Budgieluv1 If you apply stain and paint directly on them yes that would kill them. Now that it is dry they're fine.

[eazyone23]

@Cherokeekid304 Don't matter budgies can still chip away the clear coat and be poisoned. My mates Parrot was poisoned from chewing away the paint down to the metal from a normal steel cage. it almost died. Plus that green mat you have down the bottom once bird shit gets in that your gonna have some real nice fun cleaning it off. Anyways its your birds enjoy.

[Cherokeekid304]

@eazyone23 Believe me. I wouldn't keep them in it if they where chipping the paint away. I have cooler things I could put in there that wouldn't ruin it. They have been in there for a year now and there have been no problems. The green turf is made for outside patios. So, there has been no problems there either. Super kickass enclosure so far and they love it. I can tell because when I take them out they fly back in.

Your skills really are amazing! One thing I can recommend is that you get some different kinds of perches other than the wooden dowels.. At like Petco they have Manzanita branches and Cholla branchs and those cotton "Comfy Perchs" that are a rainbow of colors and the budgies really love them.. The downside with having only wooden dowels is that the budgies can get something called Bumblefoot from basically having to keep their feet wrapped around the same kind of perch.. Hope that helped.. <3

[Cherokeekid304]

@WindMadeSolid Thanks, I have heard of that. I will get them some off those for sure..

[WindMadeSolid]

@Cherokeekid304 I figured you had : ] just thought it couldn't hurt to mention lol.. you can get Manzanita perches off eBay for cheaper than paying 5-7 dollars for one perch at Petco.. & with your skills, you could add the screw and bolt on yourself. It's great of you to have them in such a huge house! Nice seeing them treated right, as you do with all your animals though! Cheers to you! x

[WindMadeSolid]

@Cherokeekid304 You can even buy some manzanita perches off eBay instead of paying $7 a piece at Petco and then add the screw onto it.. since you're good at that stuff = P.. Their home really is super nice, it's good to see someone treat their animals the way you do : ] Cheers to you x

[eliden]

wtf, your birds don't poop?

[butterfly5977]

Have I told u lately that u r the coolest kid EVER! U Amaze me-Honestly!!! Luv U! :)

[Cherokeekid304]

@butterfly5977 Thanks Mom, U Amaze me! Love you! -Dustin

[SitNDum]

I am totally impressed with what you did, and was wondering if you can send me the

dimensions or plans you had for making that. Because i love my parakeets but its hard to sleep sometimes.Thank you!

[Cherokeekid304]

@SitNDum I didn't make it from any plans or anything, I just found a spot that I would like for it to go and built around those dimensions. It's basically a box with doors. Put your mind to it and you can come up with something awesome I am sure. Good luck on your build, -Dustin

[ChiefOren]

I'm building a cage that is 2 1/2 feet deep, 8 feet tall, and 26 feet long. But then, I'm raising a bit more than just 2 budgies. Also built for myself 10 nests. When I'm done, will film it.

[Cherokeekid304]

@ChiefOren I would love to see video when you get it done.. Good luck..

[Tyranus02]

wow man that cage is very impressive i wish i had the knowledge to be able to make cages like you, great video

[ReptileRangler]

You think you could make a video on how you build your cages. Because i'm building custom cages for my reptiles too. Awesome cages also.

[supermandrei]

good video

[madbab00n]

there budgies... they only need a 2ft square cage aslong as you let them fly out around a room every now and then

[Cherokeekid304]

@madbab00n The minimum dimensions for a budgie cage is 20 inches long, 12 inches deep, and 18 inches high. This will only accommodate the birds only for sleeping and eating. Ideal dimensions for a cage is 40 inches long, 20 inches wide, and 32 inches high.

[Cherokeekid304]

@madbab00n That's for 2 Budgies/Parakeets. 24x24x24 inches will work fine but if you have seen my other custom cages. You would know that all my animals live like kings.

[TheKraken21]

Have you ever thought about getting a Chameleon? You cage designs and abilities would make AMAZING cages. You should try them out! :)

[ukaakuakuuka]

very cool! i love it

[redtail0202]

[Steingrimurkj]
