I went round to see Alans birds and setup today and i thought
i would take a couple of photo's
Alan is in a wheel chair and has built this setup with his
wife joan.It sits of the floor so he can get up close and his
legs are virtually under the aviary.
There are plenty of toys and amuzing things for the birds to
do as Alan builds these himself being a carpenter by trade.
There is a hatch on the right hand side which goes in to a
shed for shelter, There he has a block of 4 cages knocked into
one, and next to that he has 2 breeding cages

Once alan has started to breed his birds i will go back there
and take more photo's.
I have been fairly busy myself i have built a seed hopper based
on a small one i bought from stafford show, I made this one
nearly 3 times bigger and it looks good on my aviary wall at
least it gets used and also it saves on seed too.
I have got a few construction photo's somewhere i will have
to list them as well.
I have also built 6 breeding cages in my second aviary , They
have partions so it can turn into a big holding cage and each
one has a nest box on the side.
I got the wood for nothing it was 18mm ply i know it's big
but it's amazing what you can do it cost me some hinges and
screws thats all.
The fronts are standard aviary mesh because i have it laying
around and i can pull out the partitions from the middle.
I built a couple of shelves from the 18mm ply as well so i
have somewhere to put more crapp.
Well you got to put your crapp somewhere.
