Does anyone use sugar glider cages for their smaller birds? Does it work well? I like how wide and tall they are. I'm considering getting a stacked set for my two Quakers (they can't stay in the same cage). Any feedback? Thanks!

I have three sugar glider cages...they hold eight gliders though. I think it's a good idea. The bars are small and some are pretty spacious.

It depends on the glider cage. Many of them are home-made, some are small and others are large.
However, all and all, I think its a great idea! : )

I have an HQ flight cage and A&E double flight cage that are often used for sugar gliders. I have also been considering getting Critter Nation cages if I ever need to use double stacked cages. I've seen people using Critter Nation and Ferret Nation cages for their parrots - particularly disabled birds.

Just wanted to add quickly, Eva lives in my old sugar gliders' cage. They were rescues and passed away of old age about a year ago. The cage is basically a bird cage and roomy for a GCC at about 2.5'x3x4' (off the top of my head). It also has a nice flat top for adding play gyms.

Unfortunately the cage I received is missing pieces and has quite a bit of damage. I may be looking those cages! I want wide and roomy, not tall and small.
