"I bought this cage right when I adopted my baby Senegal, and they arrived at the same time (through some coincidence)... but the cage was so easy to assemble that it didn't even become a problem. I played with the bird for fifteen minutes or so while my mom built the cage. Another great thing about it--when I moved from my home into a new one, the cage fit perfectly in the back seat without taking it apart! Joey has all the room in the world to play, even with all her toys and perches and her swing in the cage with her; and I have plenty of room to store food, treats, and extra toys on the accessory shelf. I would strongly suggest to anyone with one or two small birds that they at least consider this cage."
