    New Cage----Worried It May Not Be Right...

    I have 2 lovebirds that I've been keeping in a tall, but not really wide or deep cage, bar spacing is 1/2". It's fine for them, but I wanted to get a larger cage.
    I found a really nice used cage that is a bit shorter, but much wider and deeper. The bars are 3/4" apart, so I looked up on That Pet Place what bar spacing is correct for lovebirds. That site said "no more than 3/4", so I bought the cage. Now I see on here and other places that lovebirds should have bars spaced no more than 5/8".
    I'm so upset and worried that I haven't moved my birds into the new cage.

    Lol...as long as their heads can’t fit between the bars, you should be fine. We would love to see some pics.

    How crucial is the accuracy of bar spacing for lovebirds, and are there specific consequences if it doesn't meet the recommended measurements?
