It’s a great cage for a small bird . The wires are thin and the weight of the cage is about 25 -30 pounds less than the same size A&E cage with is heavier duty . If you have a bird that’s bigger of likes to chew on the cage this cage won’t work . I can easily bend the wires with my hands , but got a little bird like a canary , parakeet , or bourke it’s just fine.
