Would this stand be appropriate for hanging a bird swing on for my blue and gold macaw? Would the swing hang securely? Thanks

It will support the swing but if your Bird is very active I suggest locking in the swing with a tie wrap.

This stand will support the swing but it could get knocked over and it does not sit level with my bird cage hanging on it.

The stand that I purchased did not sit level on the floor, and would easily be tipped over when the cage was hanging from it.

This stand did not come out to be as good as I thought. It is not stable, I got it to hand my cage with two canaries and with the cage it would always be lop-sided. It is currently outside with the bird feeder :(

This stand will be able to hold that just make sure you don't put it too high in the air and/or weigh it down with a few sandbags. I recently sold mine though for some cheetah stands because this one didn't smoothly go from folded to unfolded in time.

For safety sake, I would not advise hanging a swing from a tree. With a swing set you can utilize appropriate hardware for hanging your swing. We built our own swing-set using treated lumber...it is very strong and I don't worry about the connection hardware...it was designed for this use. It is much more difficult, I would think, to design a secure hanging system to a living tree. The tree itself may become the weak link in your system. Just my thought.

I would advise not to hang it. The roof of the cage is not locked in to the body of the cage securely . and I personally would not put 2 birds in it. It is only 22x15x11.(I think thats what the measurements are) By the time a swing and a few toys are put in there really isnt much room for 2. But thats just me, If I was you, take a yard stick or measuring tape and speck it out. But if you do get it i would advise carying it from the bottom of the cage and not by the handle on the roof of it

I would say yes for very minor issues only. The bike is not held securely in this stand, so the bikewill move considerably when attempting to loosen or tighten secure nuts/bolts.

The Stand is very stable but there is no great room for swinging. I am using it for a hammock chair similar to a pod.

I am not sure about hanging from a metal stand as we hung the swing under the deck and didn't use any springs. The only thing is that the swing comes with these really big hooks which we put thru eye bolts and you might need to take these off and use springs on the metal stand. I love the swing! Sorry if I haven't been any help.

We've had no problem with hanging a 10 pound birdfeeder but also believe we put in longer screws to be sure. We installed it on the outside of our deck railing and it reaches far enough out that bird seed does not fall on the deck. Also, this product has gone through different climates and has kept its appearance.

I really wouldn't know. As I mention in my initial review, I put a 50 lb bag of sand on the base (after reading a review that said it can tip in high winds) But if you are asking if the arms are strong, they appear quite strong. I hang a full feeder of nuts and fruit that lasts several days. We have large Woodpeckers that land on it with some force. The only thing that swings are the feeders. There is never any movement in the stand. However I do recommend the sandbag. Especially if you live somewhere near raccoons or opossums and the like.

My blue gold macaw loves her cage. So do I. IThis is my second cage I have a huge steel one out on patio for her and this one I bought for inside. I was very happy with quality of cage. It was easy to setup and my bird climbs in and out of this cage now she wants to be in it all the time. You will not regret this purchase. BTW she uses her been to climb from the floor to the top and I don't ever feel like she will bend the cage. Good luck.

The base an area where the water dishes will work well. The top piece bows with our amazon Parrot, so I don't think it will hold a macaw. You can just leave that part off during assembly.

"Tree stand" without being specific is hard to answer. The legs are very adjustable so I would say yes. I use it going to my stand even if it is not needed when I get there. I couldn't find any other even close to the price and it is top quality. It has helped get two deer from a blind.

I have mine hanging from a screw in hook... I suppose a nail would work also. The birds really like this.

Hi Breanne - I own three of these cages - my answer is no, not for a macaw- the bar strength is not great enough - your greenwing could break it in a second. I have ringnecks- conures and grass keets in mine, best cage in the world for these breeds. I have and eclectus but he is even in a cage with much greater bar strength. Hope this helps Mb

I have my cockatoo in it....I also have a macaw....it would work for a night cage....but I wouldn't use it for anything else but a night cage.....it really is a nice cage

Yes. The cage doesn't actually attach to the stand, it just sit on it. But our conure Yak yak likes to climb around on it so we put a couple of plastic tie downs on it to prevent the cage from possibly turning over

I bought 2 of these to put together to make an outside cage for my parrot to hang in the tree. If you use them for the purpose of storing fabric or material items, I see no problem. They are quality made and the "fold over" is on the outside of the basket. I would say it was a "buy" for storing towels, etc. (and my parrot loves it, as well.)
