| − | Choosing the right cage for the pet bird could be tricky : it is sometimes difficult to find a size and shape that suits both bird and human, and then there are the excessive pet shop costs to compete with. So, why not create your own, perfect bird cage from scratch as an alternative? All you need is some appropriate cage wire and some wood to make a place that feels like home for your feathered friend.

| − | Before you get the hammer, the most important thing to keep in mind is to consult a specialist, such as a veterinarian, or the pet shop owner, about the design and dimensions of the cage. This will make sure that your bird's house is the perfect fit, as not all species would be exactly the same. For example, some strains want more room to fly about than others. Also, check if your bird needs any other accessories which will make its stay much more comfortable, such as a sleeping box, lots of perches, or some toys.

| − | Next, pick the best cage wire to match your requirements. An outdoor bird cage will need weatherproof, PVC coated or stainless steel wire, and uncoated wire is needed by a cage for birds with strong beaks, like parrots,, in order that they do not peck the plastic layer off as time passes.

| − | To construct the cage, just nail together a sturdy wooden frame, and fix the wire to the outside. Remember to make a door large enough for the bird to obtain out; a fundamental hinged opening at one end will suffice. Also, try to build the bottom of the cage in a manner that allows you to slide the ground in and out easily - it makes cleaning a great deal less hassle.

| − | Finally, pop in some makeshift perches and two little pots for the food and water, and your homemade aviary is all set to go. That may cause your furry friend harm, even though, before you introduce your beaked buddy to its new pad, remember to make sure that there are no sharp objects, or bare fixtures, and that every thing in the cage is bird - proof.
