Green Wing Macaw - Daisy, B&G - Paco, Goffin - Ubu
I am hoping someone can help me. I have a Greenwing and a B&G macaw among many other birds but I am looking at getting a walk in aviary for the macaws. I have been looking at the Wingz Avian Products aviaries but they don't have very good pictures on their site so it is difficult to see how well constructed they are. I am also thinking about getting the A&E walk in aviary.
So long story short, has anyone here used/seen either of these and have an opinion on which may be better or if there is a different type all together that would work better.
I am looking at 4'W x 4'D x 7'H or 4'W x 6'D x 7'H. I appreciate any help you can all give me with this. It is a lot of money to spend and I don't want to get anything that I will regret. Thank you all.
 
Okay, the reason the wingz flights are so cheap is because they are made of galvanized metal! It's my understanding that galvanized metal is a huge no-no because galvanized metal is toxic to parrots. If they chew on it, they get zinc poisoning... so, potentially fatal mistake. I don't know why they are marketing these to parrot owners, frankly. I wouldn't trust it.


Centurian has some nice ones as well... Those I've seen and they are good quality.

Thank you for the response. They use GAW wire which is better than straight galvanized. I know stainless is the best way to go or powder coated but realistically GAW is a much more affordable way to go. I have looked at Centurion also but I had heard that they were made in China and the quality wasn't as good as A&E.
