My Breeding Cages

My breeding cages are also non-traditional or the ones being bought commercially. I have nothing against the commercially available breeding cages; it is just that I want to put some styles on it so I created the breeding cages on my own. I also want to beautify my driveway and in my opinion these commercially available breeding cages looks more industrial. Just an opinion, though.

My initial breeding cages are made up of the following materials:
• ¾ inch plywood
• Tarpaulin to add colours on the outside and to make the plywood waterproof
• Painted with white (water based paint) to make the birds more attractive
• ½ inch chicken wires for the base
• Expanded aluminium wires on windows and front side. I used this material though a bit expensive, it added some elegance to the cages and these are rust proof.


My breeding cage size is 18 inches deep x 24 inches wide x 24 inches tall. I wanted to make it bigger but my space is so limited. Remember that the bigger their cages are, the better.
