My boyfriend and I wished a cage that was extra trendy and higher contained feathers throughout molting season than a conventional massive canine crate. We had been additionally on a good funds being faculty college students that unintentionally rescued a pigeon. Which is how we ended up with a free kids’s altering desk we discovered on fb market.

My boyfriend lower the wooden out of the doorways, put in glass home windows, and made them little curtains. He additionally reconfigured the within of it and strengthened the shelf. Not pictured however he additionally made and framed tiny work to embellish their home. Sadly Pidge has a knack for ripping them off the partitions.

On the opposite facet of their cage they’ve their field that serves three functions. It’s their foraging field, their provide of nesting materials, and their crash pad for once they leap off of their shelf. At present there are two hanging toys on the decrease stage and Cobbler’s secret hanging dish on the second stage. That’s the place he sleeps and I serve him is second dinner away from his food-hog of a spouse.

On either side of their cage there’s a storage tote stuffed with different pigeon provides. Not essentially the most aesthetic nevertheless it works.
