Does anyone know how to make custome cages?
i need to have these custome made to fit a stand i already have, i will pay a fair price for anyone who can make these for me, i contacted a cage site but they are asking way too much 132 for each one.
I'd like for it to be 29 inches long, by 19 inches deep and 19 inches tall, if anyone can help me i would gladly apreciate it, they can even be shipped to me and ill assemble them with j clips. -Devanny

can you find a place local that sells the wire mesh? I made these (scroll down the page) started the new cages and it wasn't that hard.

actually $132 is a good price, have you seen how much weld wire mesh sells for? and how about sheet metal? I could fabricate those all but the sheetmetal bending and cutting, usally when I make a homemade cage I have the tray made already, I just build the wire part to suit the tray. If you can swing the trays I could build the cages but it would still be costly, I bought a 100' x 4'roll of 1 x 1 inch weld wire about two years ago and it costed @ $350, now that hardware stores have jacked up prices to almost double the costs I could just imagine how much that wire costs now. then you gotta figure in labor, yep $132 looks pretty good 'bout now...........LMB

I spoke to a lady who owns Birds n B's a reputable bird store and she told me that 132 is WAY over the top, shes been doing birds for over 25 years and still does so i took her word, it does seem too high of a price. The trays can be plastic or that shiby white board they use for play gym bases.

Seems to me the wire mesh cost about $80 tat I used for the cages. So far I have not made any to sell. The pans are made of a coated wood I found at home depot.
