Yaheetech Bird Cage Flight Large Parrot Cages for Budgies Cockatiels Conures Parakeets Lovebirds with Rolling Stand, Black

I wanted to write a review for this cage as its in-fact the second one I have purchased (I previously purchased this in the black colour choice frame), & im so happy with them, & most importantly, my budgies love them! They are a good size, & do arrive as self-assembly, but my first time assembling it myself, following the instructions booklet; which is clear & easy to follow, it took me an hour, but with the second cage, it only took me 40 mins, - & it arrives with all you need, - so the screws, & the allen key is provided, with 2 spare screws left over. The cage itself, once assembled, is sturdy, & of very good quality, - especially for the price, = good quality & great value for money too. I would deffo highly recommend, & I would deffo purchase another of these cages (probably will!) for my growing budgie family!

Currently have three of these cages. They are perfect size for my budgies. I use a cage to house each separately because they do not get on, however, in my opinion you could fit 2-3 budgies in one of these comfortably (maybe even 4 at a pinch) Bar spacing on these cages is also tight enough to contain those little mischievous birds inside. I think it would also be suitable for lovebirds, cockatiels and conures. Cage comes in a large box which is understandably quite heavy, so please take care when moving it. I am a woman with a bad back but still was able to put the cage up by myself within 30 minutes. Third time I didn’t even need to unwrap the assembly instructions. It is pretty easy to put it all together and not too strenuous on the back if one plans their process ahead. Comes with a hex key and a spare nut and bolt just in case. Cage is powder coated from what I can see and really sturdy. All of my three deliveries came with minor issues which would probably happen in transit. First one had slightly bent bars - easily bent back with a bit of pressure (definitely would not be possible for a bird to bend those) second one has a small chip in the paint work but I was able to cover this area to prevent nibbling. It also has one bar that is slightly detached on the top panel but that doesn’t affect its integrity as it is in the middle of the length. Third cage had one bar snapped off at the base of the panel but by the time it was all put up and all bolts tightened it connected at that place and is not causing any issues. Locks on the cages are great and as far as I can see impossible for a small bird to open from inside. The little trap door for dishes have a small bend in the central rod to prevent bird sliding them up and escaping through there. I do not use the supplied plastic bowls or dowel perches so cannot comment on those. Cages are very spacious and so easy to clean. I personally do not use the bottom grates, however, the tray below can be moved into the grate track thus allowing for the use of substrate bedding (which is great because it opens up a foraging opportunity) whilst the cage is still completely enclosed. Stands for the cages are sturdy and have a handy shelf. I am currently not using the casters but if you do take care when pushing the cage, it doesn’t have very deep ledge to stand on so is easily pushed off the stand frame if not supported on there. However, when not moving the frame and cage sit together very well. If you find one of the cage legs is slightly shorter you can use the spare nut and bolt to level it up. All in all I am very happy with these cages and would recommend them for anyone who is looking for a flight cage for a budgie or similarly sized bird.

Positives: Good cage! Took around 15 minutes to assemble with one other person. In all it's a very big cage for medium to small sized birds and gives a lot of space to add toys and perches and still have room for the birds to be able to fly. I like the fact the tray is easy to remove for cleaning and it is much quicker to clean this way with pulling it out rather than having to clean with your hands inside the cage like some other models. The easy lock mechanism on the door is good for keeping them inside compared to a usual sliding bar door. The cage has no damage flaws from what I can tell and I will be getting another in the future to make a longer flight cage with the one I currently have, as the side panels of the cage can be removed for this cage if you wanted and it's much cheaper than buying a actual flight cage. The size and build of the cage is so much better and I have a comparison of what it looks like to a cheaper cage I use as a spare playcage for a smaller bird for when mine are out. For general size I have two nandays in mine, they have rather long tails and are capable of being able to turn around fully in the cage and open their wings to make short flights across. Negatives: The only downsides is the four small doors for the plastic foodbowls are very easy to open if your bird is smart so I would suggest zip-tying or pegging them shut with something if you do not want your bird to escape. The cage itself is very sturdy, however I did not expect the bars to be easily bent if you pinch them together with your fingers, they do ping back into place when you let go but I would not recommend this to any bird with a stronger or bigger beak from a ringnecks or conure as they will be able to break down the bars with force. My birds are not capable of breaking the cage but do keep this in mind if you're putting an amazon or other big bird inside. For any small birds like budgies, tiels, finches and it will be okay but do consider how wide the bar spacing is, there is a slightly larger gap behind where the plastic tray slides in at the back that could allow a small birds head push through. You could probably fix this with some chicken wire and cut it to size.
