Cut it close with this coop/cage! A 'buyer' almost scammed me out of $500! Yikes! He sounded good until he started asking for gift cards - $500 worth for his daughter's B-day, and the sirens in my head went off.

Phew! Dodged the bullet there!

I can't find a cheap table wide enough :'( . It sucks!

HOw large do you need it? Folding 6ftx2ft tables at Lowes are pretty cheap.
ALSO, you can get something smaller and put a piece of plywood on top the correct size.

I need a 7 foot by 4 foot table

I purchased a heavy duty folding table for my crafts. Sometimes I need a temporary surface to drill, saw, glue and more on. Generally a surface I can abuse! Wipe, fold and put against the wall until next use. It is around 5 foot from Home Depot under 60$. Amazon, Wal-Mart and Costco have 8 foot heavy duty folding tables under 200$. Add a piece of plywood if needed for width. A piece of acrylic covering it to make it washable. Area under it can be used so decreased wasted space.

A sheet of plywood 4x7 would do it on top of a smaller table.

I think I found a table on Amazon that's wide enough . It's $215!

What I really like about sleeping on the bird room floor is that I get to spend time with the birds. At night, I usually head to the bedroom, but during the afternoon, I have a pillow (okay.. a glorified blanket...) and just sleep on the floor in front of the cages. Sure, I sometimes wake up with weird stuff in my hair, like the string of bird toy paper I thought I threw out months ago, but the birds seem to like it . Vortex especially likes it. She perches on the perch closest to me from the time I lie down until I get up. I'm clearly a flock member to her, heeheee.

Our bird room is our all purpose living room/great room/kitchen/dining room. 8 budgies free fly in the room from sun up to sundown. The adjacent porch room has 8 budgies in 2 large cages plus 3 in one smaller cage. Those three free fly in there all day. Then there's Joey who lives in our bedroom with us because she's a sex maniac at least until her implant takes effect.
We usually love having budgies as housemates but they're very messy.

My bird room is for Nameliss to watch TV alone. Or she can watch me on computer, sewing, crocheting, listening to audio books and more.

A first and a second for Yvons - The second: he let me pet him today! Just some minor scratches through the bars of the cage, but it was something. The first thing he's done is explore the top of the empty cage! Stayed there for 10 minutes before I suckered... I mean, convinced him... that the cage was where he was supposed to be.

Then Vortex got some flying done in the big cage .

I'm Gonna have to rearrange the blasted bird room if I'm gonna fit a table in here as well as a 7-foot-long cage. Right now, things are Tetris-ed pretty badly, but I have the studio to think of, too. Might hire a friend to help clean and tetris things when I can afford it . She is a MASTER of stacking shtuff!

LOL... Yeah! They're an 8-month-old green cheek conure- I believe a high red - that I got about 2-3 months ago. They're as sweet as the Dickens and personable . They're a typical GCC. They and Quasar are best friends !
