Is this really not suited for cockatiels? Does Vision carry cockatiel cages? My room is full of seed, want the coverage Vision offers.

I actually own the L12 model and this one. The L12 has larger bar spacing which is more comfortable for my cockatiel. This model has smaller spacing which is better for finches, canaries, or parakeets. In terms of mess it does a good job overall but depends on your bird. My cockatiel likes to bring food up to higher perches which can still land outside of course.

This Vision tall cage is suitable for 1 or 2 (but no more) cockatiels. It's well designed. Cleaning is no problem for me or my budgie.

You always want more width as opposed to extra height. As long as the bird can open its wings full span without hitting bars or toys then yes you can use it for a cockatiel. Find out the average wingspan first.

I have this cage for my cockatiel for awhile now and love it! No more pellets on the floor and there is plenty of room for him to spread his wings when he wants to flap around. No problem with wire spacing, I also have one for my green cheek conure. Thinking of getting one for my quaker and getting rid of the large, hard to clean messy cage I have for him now.

Hm. I have 3 budgies. I can probably add 2-3 more into the cage. But cockatiels are much larger, so i think it has good room for just one cockatiel. Reason because i think it is the narrowness of the cage. If its 2-3 inches wider, it'd be perfect for two.. I can say, as the owner of this cage since black friday, it does help keep your floor clean just about 90-95% of the time. ;-) i would even pay a full price just to get another one.

This cage is great for cockatiels! I have cockatiels in this cage and they have enough room. The seed shields do a good job of keeping the seed shells inside.

This cage is ok for no more than two cockatiels. I had two in there and they were comfortable it seemed. I still ended up getting them a slightly larger cage though. The clear plastic on the vision cage gets quite gross and its a pain to clean!

Yes , its good cage and very well built..the only thing i dont like about these cage is cleaning part , i wish they had sliding tray as well so it can be easily clean,,when birds are breeding and sitting on eggs they hate being transfer and in most cases they never sit on eggs once moved out of the cage !

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.

Ken, I am not a bird expert, but have worked as a docent at Zoos and Aquariums. My birds are two Sun Conures who like to chew, but not the cage. If you don't give enough interesting things to chew in the cage and your bird likes to chew the cage, stay away from this one. It is well built I am very happy with it, but birds will be birds. Maybe you should consider a stainless steel cage. Good luck with your Cockatoo.

We use this perch for our Australian Major Mitchell Cockatoo (do a Google image search to see photos and compare size with your bird). We have taken the bowls off to give him more room. He doesn't have a lot of room to move but it's enough for our purposes. We use this perch when our bird comes into the house. I hope that this helps. :-)

Hey no this was smaller than I expected even for my green cheek. Its so narrow his tail looks to big for it lol theres one for $49 on here thats similar but wider advertised as a cockatiel cage but even then if you want more than 2 perches and toys this is a terrible idea. He cant take the bowls out if he tried because theyre hooked in from the outside but he could pull them upwards from the inside which would put them at a slant & spill some of the contents. When he lets go theyd fall back in place. Hope this helps !

Hi Ms Tiggy! Im not sure how to meassure the size cause they come in different sizes. Mine is medium and a cockatiel would love it. Spacious and good perch. Mesh? Not sure what that is. I am very happy with my buy and the quality is good. Hope it helps:)

As I have stated previously I believe this question is better directed to the manufacturer. If you send them an emailthey will send you directions on how to assemble the cage and include the lead question. The cage is quite roomy formy cockatiel who is more than 9 inches. While the cage is 20"w by 20" deep it is 24" tall. I have 3 food dishes and a waterdish as well as sleeping house in this cage and still have plenty of room for toys etc. I have had the cage for a few months now and my bird has his mouth on it every day when he climbs up and down (inside and out) and I have observed no illeffects. Budgies are smaller than cockatiels so two should fit fine. As I have stated previously I believe this question is better directed to the manufacturer.

The cage is easily big enough to 2 cockatiels. Ours has 2 conures in it and there is plenty of room. The size that you see listed is accurate so just measure out a piece of cardboard and se if it is ok in your space. The cage with the stand is like 5 feet tall.

It would be too small for a Cockatiel. They might try to fit themselves inside if they are looking for a nest box, but there is no way they could get their tail inside. They might enjoy chewing on it.

The cages although divided are very spacious. I believe cockatiels would breed just fine.

I think the cage would be fine for a Parakeet. I have a cockatiel in my cage the bird and I both love the cage.

No, this cage is for small birds like finches and canaries that enjoy flying back and forth horizontally - Cockatiels do well in up and down high cages with enough room around them to flap their wings - They also like to be outside the cage to fly around and be on top of the cage - Look for a Prevue cage specifically for cockatiels, taller rather than wider - Hope this helps - I bought a cockatiel cage kit at PetSmart for my lovebirds - If you look at that, you will see what I'm trying to describe - Mine was 27" tall, 19 1/2" wide and 15" deep - Good luck!

Yes, this cage would be perfect. I love the fact that it is see thru, your birds will not feel confined.

I have a love bird. The birds you mentioned may not fit, but I put shredded brown paper bag, paper inside the hole and my bird love to stick his head in and pick it out. He sits on the ladder mostly. I hope this helped . I like it in the cage.

In my opinion a cockatoo may be too big. I say this because my cockatiel, (Chloe) is a little over 3 years old, and her body frame is just a little bigger than a parakeet, but with long tail feathers. The perch sits in the middle of the cage, and is a small/skinny perch. The perch inside the cage may not be strong enough for a cockatoo. She fits just fine on the perch, but a cockatoo may be too heavy. The cage is strong and study, but is really large enough for parakeets, cockatiels, conures, and other smaller birds. The carrying bag is really cute, but I wouldn't recommend for your cockatoo. I'm sorry to say, because if just a bit larger it would be perfect for a cockatoo. I hope your can find a similar carrying bag, because my cockatiel loves it when I take her in the car for rides inside the carrying bag that has a window on each side.

I can't say for sure since I have parakeets. I am not altogether familiar with cockateils.I have two keets in mine, and it is plenty big. I feel like I could put up to 3 in, and it would be fine, but no more... Mine also get a lot of time outside the cage.
