Hi, I have nine budgies, one cockatiel, and one house finch in my current cage: http://i44.tinypic. com/1zn5pop.jpg http://i39.tinypic. com/27xnrrd.jpg (different birds, but same cage) and my dad is building a aviary for me! Its going to be like 4x bigger than the one I already have: http://i40.tinypic. com/f9hvs1.jpg I’m really excited, hes probably going to finish it next week. A few days before its done, I’m going to buy different sized branches, few food/water bowls, chew toys, and other treats for my babies. But I’m wondering if thats to much for them… overwhelming for them? So should I put them in the cage for a few hours and put them back in the one in my room? When could I leave them in for the whole day? Do I let them stay in at night in March were its not so cold in the night? Since its going to be big, do you think I could leave my African Grey Parrot in there with them? Hes a really nice bird: http://i40.tinypic. com/15rfo76.jpg
(Just to let you know, they get along pretty much, sometimes my budgies will woo to my finch o_O And the Cockatiel doesn’t bother or peck at my budgies or the finch.) http://i44.tinypic. com/2dca1kk.jpg http://i42.tinypic. com/xfunmg.jpg

It’s never adviseable to leave a larger parrot in with small ones. The small ones will be the aggressors and the Grey will hurt or kill them defending himself.
