So, I've decided to buy a new cage for my female Quaker, Quincey. I'd like one that isn't powder coated and a good size, but not too big. Any suggestions on cage size and/or reliable good quality companies? Right now, I'm waiting for her wing feathers to mature, and I'm not sure if when I clip if I will let her have some flight.
The reason I don't really want it powder coated is because she seems to pick it off (which I stopped that behaviour by weaving palm weaved through the affected cage bars and made sure by the vet that she hadn't swalowed anyting), which is dangerous and why I'm trying to buy a new one. Unless the powder coat on my cage is just a bad one because it was a cheap (but not so cheap) cage from a pet shop (at the time, I was definatly not cage savvy... and still isn't)
I also just generally don't really like the cage all that much, and would like a bigger one.
And it sorta can't be over the top expensive. So... any ideas? I'm at a loss
