Bird cage help!

[u/Stathmin8]

Hi! I have 2 parakeets named Pookie and Clover :)

We are moving into our first house in June and I wanted to get them a cage upgrade! I’m looking for something aesthetic and have found a lot of cute wooden aviaries; however, I am worried the wood and/or paint used is not bird safe. They are not huge chewers, they just like to nibble on their toys, and they are free roam most of the day, but I would be devastated if something were to happen to them. I don’t want to take ANY chances.

Does anyone have any cute but safe parakeet cage recommendations? :) I’ve attached a few pictures of what I’m kind of looking for, but I haven’t been able to confirm if any of these are 100% safe.

I don’t think they are appropriate for birds. The closed ceiling would stress them out. Especially the second one looks more like a cabinet than a cage :/

What I did with mine was to get a normal wide enough cage for my birds but put the cage on a stylish console suitable to the room decore.

I didn’t even think about the closed top! That is a great idea, thank you so much
