Can I use this nest for my zebra finches

This box has been a great help. Busy lovebirds have hatched two sets of babies with four in each set and a third in the works. The nest holds all very nicely and I can check on them daily without disturbing them.

I have 4 zebra finches and they are pretty happy because there is plenty of vertical space for them to play in but 2 Cockatiels may need a wider cage?

Hmmm I'm not sure about this. I hung three of them up in and around our property and because birds in the wild will build their nests ANYWHERE, I figure they surely ought to be able to make this custom-built HOUSE work for them. I think it's more or less, up to the birds themselves to build the sticks and twigs INSIDE of this structure so as to hold their little ones.

I see no reason why this cage would be a problem for parakeets. I had up to eight finches at a time in my cage and they always had plenty of space for themselves. If you purchase this cage I would suggest either buying new perches or cutting the ones the come with the cage down to size. The perches that come with the cage span the length of the flight cage. If you want to allow your bird to make full use of their flight cage you will want to place perches that are perpendicular to your birds flight path. Hope this helps.

You certainly could but the holes are so large, I think you'd go through seed too fast for my budget. I try to encourage the birds to clean up the ground after themselves but that hasn't always worked.

this one is for finches and smaller birds. you would want one that is deeper than this.

Yes, you can use this with your older habitats. All the pieces work together.

No they don't and I have zebra finches that I bought these cages for and they fly right threw the holes I was very upset

Yes, since I am using this as a breeding cage, I cut a piece of veneer skin (thin enough) and slid it in with the divider. Without it the birds had physical and visual contact. Hope this helps. Nicole

Yes finches like to sleep in a high dome like nest as they would in the wild when they make their nest in a treetrunk crevice. it is a good size for a finch but not for two finches. But if your finch is willing to share its home that would be fine but they would be a little squished because their is not alot of room for two finches but it could still work out for them.

I don't think so. I had a bird die in mine so had to throw it out. The mother birds get scared by any noise or movement and will abandon their young so I don't recommend this.

No-no place to hang a nestbox on the outside of the cage. I use wicker nests inside the cage.

I don't see why not. There are two perches that came with it and I added a booda comfort perch.

I found, on ordering these cages, that the measurements belie the capacity to use them for budgies. They might be suitable for finches, but they're simply way too small for budgies to nest comfortably. On top of that, one of these cages arrived with an ill-fitted top grate. After much frustration with these cheaply-made cages I gave them (literally gave them) away to someone with finches because I couldn't stand having them around. A few months ago I purchased two 'Prevue Pet Products F075' cages and they're much sturdier, have more space, and are *much* easier to clean. They're pricier, but I've never had a nicer breeder stack and plan to purchase two more within the next six months.

We have a lot of sparrows in the area, but so far, none have tried to build a nest in the bluebird house. The bluebirds already are sitting on 5 eggs this Spring. I am in Indiana.

I don't think so, but you would probably not want to use a tray on a Finch feeder even if it did attach. Finches are such picky eaters and like to perch on the small rods that I think that a tray would have them flying on to another feeder. You might want to check with Droll Yankees to be sure. Every time I have contacted them, they have been extremely knowledgeable and helpful.

Even my zebra finches didn't like this cage, it is short, bird were made to have the sky to fly in, they were uncomfortable and unhappy with the roof so close. Birds don't fly straight across, look at them in the wild, they fly at angles. I got them a taller cage and they were much happier. Width is best at a minimum of 20" so finches can fly around without always trying to avoid flying into each others way.
