I wouldn't even put a finch in that much less a green cheek.

The door of that cage was not closed.

Myrtle's and Rambo's cages are a little bigger. More than big enough for them. All they do is keep their stuff in them.

I kind off hastily posted what I said without knowing the circumstances the bird. My initial assumptions were also supported by the misspelling of the word "bird". However, after I posted my response to the video on this forum, I saw the owner's channel and realized that what I thought of this owner as false.
PS There are so many videos of small parrots in tiny cages on the Internet you kind of stop bothering to investigate further about each individual situation. To everyone on this forum and to the owner ( even though he/she won't be seeing this), sorry for any misconceptions.

Awfully small, but still basically the same size as the cages people keep recommending for Conures/Cockatiels/Poicephalus, like these ones: http://djurpalatset.se/images/papegaaie ... ingham.jpg

Any bird should be able to fly in their cage in my opinion, no matter how little time they're in it. (Unless we're talking Kiwis or Kakapos or Dodos or...;))
