Cage for a barraband

[Olliethebarraband]

Hi I am a first time bird owner and I brought a cage that is suitable size for him but because I am away a long period of time needs to be bigger to hang toys etc so are looking at buying a new cage for him. Any suggestions welcome about the cages or any other knowledge on these birds because there seems to be a very limited amount of info

Thanks

I actually had no idea what a Barraband was, so I had to do some googling. I'd say a flight cage would be good for him. I'm not if sure how big the bird actually is, but it looks similar in size to a small conure. If that's the case, my small conure is in a flight cage measuring 20.5 x 17 x 32.

Hi we have a local breeder in invercargill new zealand who breed and hand raised three chicks and was in looking for a cage for a budgie when i saw these quirky wee characters have a good look at me I had wanted a bigger bird for a long time and brought him on the spot. He seems to love waddling round when out here cage exploring every nook and cranny . He is a quite bird
