How's this cage for three?

www.bird-cage.com/bird-cages/prevue-flight-cage-large/

I think I talked about this cage in a different post, but I forgot if it was good enough. And for THREE not TWO!
Also, it says it has bird safe coating, would it be fine for gliders??

Thanks!!

That is a good cage. I think the size would be alright for three, but I know a few people on here have that exact cage and perhaps they will give you a better idea on three vs two.

All of mine are that exact model, it's a great cage and very durable. There is a slightly larger version as well though, the F050, that would give you more room, but the one you have linked would be fine for 3 gliders. The doors on it are smaller, so you will have to get any glider-sized wheels up through the bottom (which is no big deal), and you will also want to zip tie the side doors closed so they don't push them open and take their leave!

I would probably be taking out the slide and platforms to allow more room so then would it be enough?

Actually nevermind. I don't think it's big enough.

The bars on that last one are WAY too far apart. Your suggies would just walk right out

If you know you are going to have 3 suggies, I would go with the F050 XL prevue hendryx flight cage.

It wasn't available when I purchased my first cage which was the F040 and it was crowded for my 3 gliders and their stuff.

I got 2 of the F050 and put them together but one F050 would work fine for 3 gliders.

the cage is on sale for $180.31 with free 2 day shipping. (I didn't have to sales tax either but that may depend on where you live)

I paid $220.00 each cage from here a few months ago...this is a really ggod deal.

Is this cage sturdy Minnesota?

I was looking at this for ours...
www.birdscomfort.com/double_bird_cages.html
but the bar spacing is 1.22 inches. I really, really like the size and structure of this one tho. Has anyone found one similar to this with proper bar spacing?

yes, these cages are very sturdy. I like the quality, ease of cleaning and they are reasonably priced.

I looked at your link...HQ does make cages that folks here have for their sugar gliders.

Maybe someone with those cages will jump in give some feed back


here is the double wide(2 F050 XL put together)

I have the predecessor to this cage: http://www.exoticnutrition.com/costsuglca.html . The size and structure are the same but they made a few small changes to make it more geared to sugar gliders (no bird feed trays or little doors). It's a great cage and a pretty good price too.
Good cage??
