Use Wire Cages with Solid Floor Area

5
  1. Solution: Construct or purchase wire cages, ideally with 1/2" x 1/2" hardware cloth for flooring and 1" x 1/2" for sides/top.
  2. Explanation: Wire floors allow droppings to fall through, keeping the birds cleaner and simplifying waste management (using dropping trays underneath). Include a small solid area (wood, plastic) for resting feet. Ensure at least 1 sq ft per bird.
  3. Notes: Sloping the floor slightly towards the front allows eggs to roll out gently for easy collection.
