I had a cheap clothes rack that wasn't being used (got at Walmart) I took out one of the extension pieces on each side to lower it, wrapped all metal tubing in vetwrap and then wove a net onto it out of sisal. My green cheek, Georgia loves it!

sorry about that....I must have done something wrong. Try this.

That is SO COOL!!!!!!

What a great idea. What kind of rope did you use? Sisal? I might just have to try that for my TAG. I don't think my sun would like it. I made him a tree stand with sisal and he won't have anything to do with it. In fact, he really won't go anywhere but me or his cage. I think he is a bit spoiled.

Yes, I used 1/4" sisal. Didn't know if the net would get much use being vertical like it is but my gcc loves climbing it. The diameter of the metal tubing is probably about 1/2" and suits her just fine. It seems a bit narrow for my TAG but he uses it too.
