It was on Amazon. Homey Pets I think is the place it came from.

Returning it should be a breeze through Amazon. Yeah, I know it's still a mega PITA and all, especially since you had waited for Gollum's cage and all.

What is Gollum in right now???

Okay, so I have started my shopping search again. I have read about you guys recommending kings cages. Now, I found this cage I like. The description says VERTICAL BARS. BUT, one of the reviews on amazon says the horizontal bars are perfect blah blah blah. I cannot tell from the pic if the sides have horizontal bars. Anyone familiar with this cage? I cannot seem to find any other pictures of it.
I am going to try and attach the amazon link and the kings cage link.

Not a very suitable cage for a Senni, IMO. More suitable for very small birds. And no, there are no vertical bars, only those that are holding the horizontal bars together.

I agree with Wendy, that is a bit too small. How about something like this?

It is 32 inches wide and 21 inches deep, inside height of 34 inches.
That is larger than both of the cages you listed. Im sorry, Im confused, am I missing something?

Superior Line Flight Cage

1/2 inch bar spacing

Flight cages are usually meant for little birds that don't have much chomping power in their beak. The bar spacing isn't optimal either.

Hope that clarifies your confusion.

Yes it does. I thought you meant length, height, width.
This has proven to be harder than I thought. I had only been taking spacing and l,h,w into consideration. Ugh

Here is one from King's that would be a good fit for Gollum:

King's Cages - Avian and Pet Bird Cages, Supplies, Food, Toys, Perches, Aviaries, Pluck No More

Not particularly well priced, is it?

If you check out eBay you'll find some great deals.

Here's another good one from Bird Paradise:
9003223 AE Cage Dome Top 32 x 23 Powder Coated - DOME TOP CAGES

And if you prefer playtop:
8003223 AE Cage Play Top 32 x 23 Powder Coated - PLAY TOP CAGES

But they don't HAVE to be that enormous.

Thank you! We are headed to a bird only store within driving distance. I will see what they have in comparison to those (for the prices). I like the second to last one you listed!
Right now gollum is in a 18x17 cage. I had bought as a travel cage. After I got it I thought it was too big for a travel cage... But since he has been without a large cage for days, good thing I got the bigger one

So Bird Paradise is having a special until tomorrow midnight.

For orders over $300 you get 30% off. (Promo Code: 30OFF) AND free shipping, of course. :)

The cage you like is currently $339.99, so with the 30% off coupon it would 'only' be $237.99
