- female sun conure, female crimson bellied conure
Hello all, below is a link to the cage I'm considering getting for my sun conure and crimson bellied conure.

And this is what they are currently in.

I've had this cage for 3/5 years I've had my sun, so the majority of her life and almost the entire time I've had the crimson and I HATE it. I regret the white because I can't see through the bars well. I've always thought it was a little too shallow at 21". And although I wanted them to have lots of space I live in a small 100sq ft room, and the 65" long cage fits just so up against my desk and makes it really tight and hard to move the cage to clean and put them in front of the window for some more natural light. It also has those terrible breeder doors with no real latch and does not have feeder doors to make it easier for others to care for my birds when I'm gone.
I've been looking for alternative flight cages with the divider (they get along decently and even snuggle at night but still have their squabbles so I need the option to separate) but they were always either meant for bigger birds with 1" spacing or the 52" version of the cage they are in now is far too shallow at 17" deep.
With all of this said I have two main questions. Does anybody have experience with this brand and know if they okay? And also just generally does everybody think this will be a good fit for what I've described without making my birds too cramped? This cage is more expensive than anything else I've tried, but it looks really good with some horizontal bars, nice big main doors, latchable feeding doors, and a relatively flat top. The cage market can be pretty frustrating and if this doesn't work out how i hope it does I might have to try building my own.
