I am traveling from Denver to Conn this summer. Could I also use the cage for my 4 cockatiels to live in for 6 weks

This cage is too small for 4 cockatiels. Personally I would only keep 1 cockatiel I there with adequate time outside of the cage.

In my opinion, no. I used it to travel from Maine to CO and only had one canary and it was adequate for him, but I know Cockatiels are much bigger than canaries. Maybe if it came in a much bigger size than what I bought, it would be OK, but I must tell you, the small size I got is HEAVY. Also I had such trouble taking the pan out to change the paper and getting it to go back in correctly. Personally, I would look at a different cage for your Tiels, but if you want a used one, I'll sell you mine cheap! If I move again, I'll buy something else.

Yes. Be aware that this cage is large and heavy. I would not recommend for back and forth to the vet due to the bulkiness but a long trip like that, you may want the extra convenience of the pull out paper tray for easier cleaning and the space for the bird. It's also super easy to put together just be careful when installing the hardware as it's easy to lose a spring.

Hi, this is a really nice cage for up to two medium sized birds, but too small for four. We brought a green cheeked conure,(same size as a cockatiel) successfully, from Colorado to Idaho and thought it was adequate. But I think the same company makes one a little bigger. Good Luck! C.Aguirre

I would say that it would be OK for traveling, but 6 weeks is a long time for 4 birds to be in this size of a cage. I think it is too small for that; better suited to two and you'll need more perches.

I would say no. The well constructed cage is much smaller than it appears. It was way too small for my single cockatoo, which would have touched the cage both top and bottom just to stand.

Unfortunately No. The cage is fantastic but far to small for 4 cockatiels. I would say one bird for that length of time.

No. Best for 1, maaaaybe 2 medium birds, short term. My african grey uses it when we're on trips of up to 4 weeks in our RV, but she's out on perches (atop the cage or elsewhere) a LOT of the time.

It's not really adequate for a cockatiel, I would think you would want a bigger , stronger cage for that size bird. I use it as a travel cage only for my cockatiels.

It depends on what kind of bird. I don't think a Cockatiel would be able to get out but a smaller bird might be able to. The grate slides in and out and the tray sits on its own track. For what it's worth, I am really happy with this cage and so is my bird.

Absolutely. I also have a conure. The cage is plenty big and very well made. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality. My bird loves the playpen on top of the cage-he actually spends most of his time up there with a few toys that I added.

I have 3 Cockatiels in there.....you know how they say you have to have enough room for them to spread their wings? how big is your amazon? I can email you pictures of my birds inside the cage. it is sturdy, I love that I can roll it to the balcony:)

I have a friend using this cage for a pair of cockatiels and it is fine. They can fly within it. I have two of the cages, with 5 parakeets in each and they are not over crowded. I am a middle aged woman, and I can bend the thinnest of the wires with my fingers if I apply quite a lot of force. It hurts my finger tips, but I can flex the wire if I try hard. My neighbor's sun conure is quite a feisty fellow. He lets him self out of his cage and then lets all the other birds out of their cages. Conures are kind of "birds of a different feather." You would be a better judge of your own birds. The cockatiels are content to NOT break out.

Yes, my cockatiel lived in it quite happily for a month when I moved and we were waiting for the movers to bring her regular cage. My only problem was transferring him in and out. The whole side opens which is nice, but it was a struggle getting him into it without him trying to fly back out at the same time. But my bird was skittish, if your budgie is totally finger trained it should be fine.

I'm sure 2 Cockatiels would be ok in this cage. I have 3 Budgies and they have plenty of room for perches and toys. This cage is awesome for cleaning. I set it on the floor to clean - It is to tall for me to lift apart on the stand - unsnap the bottom portion and move the top portion to a towel - then clean the bottom portion and the put back together. My birds are ok with being lower for a little bit - they talk to the dogs during cleaning time :) I have the stand that is made for this cage as well - looks nice together. I would definitely buy another one if needed.Hope this helps in your decision making. I'm sure 2 Cockatiels would be ok in this cage.

I would think so. I think it will depend on if the bird isn't afraid of the enclosure. I was told by the bird shop that my cockatiel would never use it, but she loves it so much she even sleeps in it. Good luck!

I would not put a cockatiel in this cage, it is to small. I found it was to small even for my Parrolet.. And he is only 4-5 inches long. Just not enough room for them to play and move around. This is more of a travel cage.

I don't see why not. This is a very nice cage and has suited us extremely well. We have a Black Cap Conure that has resided in our cage for many years with not problems whatsoever.

I have two cockatiels and a parakeet that reside in the cage. It works perfectly. I have added limbs from PetSmart and the birds love it. It is like a little tree for them with extra perches. The grating does not cause any harm to small birds.

This is a big cage. It's great for cockatiels. Even several of them. So it will be huge for a love bird. You may want to get a second one. ;)

Not sure. We are very pleased with this cage for our 2 cockatiels. They even seem to like it.

Only if your birds are very small, this is a great cage for the money !!!! Good luck ......

I would not recommend this particular cage for two cockatiels. It's quite a bit small for even one with toys. We have to switch out toys so it's not too crowded, she has a hard time flapping her wings.

I wouldn't advise it. I transported two African Grey's in two separate cages cross country for 6 consecutive 8-10 hour drives. Of course they stayed in the cages 24/7 for those 6 days. It's pretty tight quarters for any length of time unless your grey and amazon are always paired in the same cage and used to it.
