Indoor Aviary Empty
PostSubject: Indoor Aviary   Indoor Aviary EmptySun Nov 27, 2011 10:17 pm

I just post it on my blog, but I'll also share it here.

We wanted to spend more time with our birds. Before they had they own
"bird room", but most of activities take place in the living room. The
indoor aviary was my boyfriend's idea and we build it together.

Aviary size is a little over 5x7 foots, I can see my birds from any
place in a living room and kitchen, they have a material curtain to make
them sleep better at night. Inside there are 2 cages: Lucky's on the
left and Chico's on right. Cages are only for food, water, shower and to
keep them get used to cages in case if we'll have to move from this
apartment.
As you can see on video, they have plenty of toys and more is on the way ordered today.

At the moment of recording it was really ugly weather outside, and
that's the reason our fids was kinda crappy. This is also the very first
movie, so forgive me the quality. I'll be improving that!

Good job M, in our old bird room Josie put down linoleum on the floor and 2ft up the walls so we could wet mop the bird mess.

I think Mango fancies himself as king of the roost. Very Happy

That's one of the things I'm planning to do in mine as well, though I'd never thought to go up the walls with it. I'd been planning to line the walls behind the cages with shower curtains from the dollar store. I've found that at a buck, they're very easy to brush clean AND replace when no longer serviceable.

On the floor we have original carpet, then bought and brought by ME on 2nd floor linoleum floor, then heavy-duty shower curtain and then contraction paper, which I change during cleaning.

I can't remove carpet, because apartment is not mine.

Linoleum was bought specially for 'zon and after listening to smart 'zon crazy people(Josie & Captain).
I still have in my bedroom(ex-birdroom) white linoleum on one wall moa

Okay, how are the black cages? Do you like them? I am looking for a new cage and I saw those...
