Lately my mom's been thinking about me getting a cage to go outside, at first she suggested a aviary but she wasn't willing to give away even 6' of her backyard lol. When I move out and have my own backyard I can make a awesome aviary ;)
So the cage I found is on CG, it is a lightly used HQ cage. I showed it to my mom but then realized it was all the way in Santa Rosa(110 miles away), but my mom said it is probably worth it and is going to buy it for me for my birthday since it's on the 22! I may even put Rosie's current cage outside and put this HQ cage inside, her current cage only cost me $215 brand new! easily replaced compared to a $500 HQ cage. We are buying the cage for $175. The cage is 1" deeper than Rosie's and then pretty much the same size. it is 36"W x66"H x28"W.
our plan is to drive up on Sunday to pick it up, and most likely sight see the north bay a little bit and eat lunch.
We are going to wrap the cage in a tarp when not in use to protect it from the elements, and bring put it in the garage in the winter when the weather is rainy. We live in a rain shadow and rain in the summer is very unusual. I expect a outside powder coat cage would last a year, I'm hoping that I might get 2 years out of it since I'm going to try to protect it.
It has casters, they just aren't on in the photo. She said one is loose, we can always buy another or replace it though,
