I was recently cage shopping for our first bird a green cheek conure and was considering the protege. I found on the company website that they had some floor model, gently used cages for substantially lower than what you can buy them for new. I decided to get the HQ flight cage instead but wanted to pass along this info in case anyone has been wanting a protege and price was a consideration. The owner of the company contacted me last week to say that they still had 3 left for 119.00 includes shipping. Here is her contact info.
