I am getting a TAG in Sept. I am trying to learn everything possible beforehand but am getting some contradictory advice! What bar spacing would you reccomend for a cage for a TAG?

I have a TAG and the bar spacing is about 1". PM me with your e-mail address and I'll send you some pictures of it.

Hi Paul, congratulations on your new baby! We too are expecting our first little TAG to arrive in less than two months. He's still being handfed in PA. Our breeder is highly knowledgable and has a perfect reputation of the birds he breeds. He told us that bar spacing should be 3/4 inch and the minimum size cage is 33inches wide by 23 inches deep. Where in New England are you from?

Well it's back to the drawing board. The cage was out of stock in stainless. :(

I am now torn between a Kings powdercoated #207, a stainless 207 or an avian adventures stainless Chiquita dometop. The AA is $603, the painted kings is $540 and the stainless is $1030, which is technically too much. No, it's really too much. I cant decide!!!!!
