Hello! I want to buy a huge cage for my gliders. I am looking in the 500 dollar range. The problem is that the bar spacings are bigger on these. I found one that I believe is 3/5th inch and that is the smallest I have seen.

My gliders are all fully grown and none are super small. Would it work? If not, does anyone have links to extra large cages that have 1/2 inch bar spacing or less?

it's this cage

I can't say if that will work. the plastic wire mesh I bought is 5/8 inch
square, I have used if for about 1 year and not a single glider has got their
head in the square. you could look at the cost of PVC, mesh, and tie wraps.
I used that to make a wall and glider safe room.

BYK, that is such a nice cage.

I tried doing just a little area for them to glide in but had the hardest time with the plastic mesh to lie flat.

OMG, this is genius! I believe my current house has lead paint from years ago underneath the top layer so i am hesitant to do this, but if I move this is a great idea.

we got a lead free paperwork when we bought the house, but the gliders dont
bother the paint much. I have mesh over the window and the closet, plus

the cage, cat tree for them to climb on. so if you have good paint over the
bad paint, you should be ok, but of course can't say 100 percent.
