Two cockatiels
Howdy! I have two tiels and I need advice on what cage I should get. I have four that I’m all getting kinda mixed reviews on so I wanna get more advice on which one I should choose.

I like first and last cages
A&E is an excellent brand IMO
The problem with the second one is bar spacing..
Yes 5/8 is fine for teils but its the max spacing do if your teil is a bit small then i think he would be able to squeeze his head through if he tried
A good way too make sure you teil wont get stuck is by measuring the space from one eye to the other one and picking the right size or one thats a bit smaller
I also would recommend if you are getting one with the plastic bowls to switch them to stainless steel bowls

If it was me and I had the option, I would go for two separate cages. If you've got a male and female that will cut way down on (but not eliminate totally) the chances of unwanted breeding. If you have two males, they may get on OK outside the cage, but sometimes rivalries can build up in confined quarters and fights may ensue if they are caged up together. I have two male cockatiels who I know for a fact would injure each other if I tried to cage them together so while they interact perfectly happily outside the cage, they have separate quarters at lock-up time, for safety's sake :)

Hey!
I really really like the first cage!
This is because the first one is like a dual setup let's say. The cockatiels you get will be in a pair and with keeping two birds in the same cage, it can reduce space for each bird but also you never know if your birds are going to get along.
So with the first cage option, they can still be next to each other but there's a barrier in between (I think) to prevent mishaps occuring if the birds don't happen to be fond of each other. The dimensions also look great and plenty of space, which the other do have as well.
