Our new cage came FedEx today...of course I had to dig right into getting it all put together...I think I am nuts! It is done, but the keets were just kinda keeping to one corner. I put stuff around...it looks gawdy and empty all at the same time. =) They're all outside sitting on the top right now. I'll post some pics in the Photo gallery. =)

BTW...anyone with a cage similar...how do you clean it? my other cages were easy to take apart and clean...this won't come apart...I had to bend the prongs to keep it together...any help and suggestions would be MOST appreciated!

Oh yay, I saw your cage in the Photo Gallery and it looks GREAT, I think it's exactly to mine. Is it 30x18x36?

Your little ones are definately too spoiled hihi...And about the cleaning, I had the same problem at first too. The bottom tray just wont slide out as easily. So what i've been doing is I just don't use the tray at all. Instead, I lay newspaper on the bottom (inside) of the cage and change it 2x (or once) a day. Not only it's faster but cleaner at the same time too. I don't like the fact that their poops get stuck on the bottom wires, I'm kinda a clean freak when it comes to their poops get on anything like toys, wire, perch, etc. smile

Oh, thank you, that is helpful...I hate poo everywhere too! =) I plan to pay close attention to it. It is the same size at yours...we didn't really visualize it so big. =) My daughter came home from school...her first words were, "WOW! That's the biggest cage I've ever seen!" She's a kid and it's quite a bit bigger than our last cages. =) Thanks again...I'll let you know how the first clean goes!

I keep an old tooth brush under the paper on the tray and every morning I give a quick scrub under wherever Aruba slept at night and every evening a quick scrub anywhere as needed. It only takes a min. at the most.

That's the cage that I had for my keets. i thought it was good quality for the price... you got it on eBay, right? I got mine there for like $50 w/ shipping a while ago.

Well, you got a better price than I did. =) I can't complain...everything of similar size was much more, even local without shipping. I'm thankful. =)

My cage is 26x20x34. It has a single door in the front that I can almost fit through.
I think yours has 2 doors? I can't judge on the sizes!
I keep a toothbrush near that I use on the grate to get the daily poops off. My cage has a slide out grate and tray. Once a week, I slide out the grate and use Poop Off wipes to clean it good. Then I lean in and clean the inside walls of the cage with the wipes. There is usually tiny pieces of spinach and carrots stuck to it. lol
