Has anybody built a indoor walkin aviary??
Ok I am going to build a huge walkin indoor aviary for my two birds, a cockatiel and green cheek conure. My plans are for it to be 8ft tall and 5ft around in a hexigone shape and then use gavonized wire after weld (I know to scrub wire with white vingar before putting up) so my question is has anyone done this and have pictures for me to see their ideas. I plan on starting on the frame tomorrow so wish me luck and I will hopefully post pictures when I have finished.

I bought tiels from a lady who had all of her birds that weren't paired up in big pvc/wire walk-in flights. Im not sure how she attached the wire to hers but I made portable chicken pens with pvc and wire and attached the wire with zip ties (electricians cable ties). I've also used the ties to attach nest boxes and toys to cages. So far no problem with them chewing them off but I only have smaller birds, tiels and quakers. I don't know how long they'd last with something bigger like amazons or greys or something

My Macaw breaks through The thickest of Zip ties in a matter of Seconds, I would not recommend using these to secure anything that could either allow them to escape or hurt them if it fell. We use them to attach things(Small toys, wood pieces etc) knowing he will take them off, it is his favorite passtime to see what he can remove from the playstand and at ne point started taking the stand itself apart. So now we give him otherthings to remove and destroy so he leaves the actual structure alone.
