Im thinking about getting an indoor aviary, that would be for my conures, also thinking about getting another conure or conures in the future. How many could I have in an 80x40 inch or 64x64 in cage? Or would it be best to have separate smaller cages for each conure/pair? I don’t breed, nor plan too. I do my best to discourage it as well. Ty! :)

What is the height dimension for each? Am I correct in assuming that there will be males and females, or are you only having one gender? Are they all the same species, or are you planning for multiple species?

Both are 80 inches tall, they’re from this website Natural Inspirations Parrot cages Yes, they’re would be both males and female. Multiple species, but all would be in the same genus Pyrrhura. Crimson bellied, black capped, maroon bellied, maybe other green cheeks, etc. Just curious what my options are. :)

Problem is that while you can fill a cage, some do not like to have roomies. You’d have to play by ear to see who gets along and be prepared that hormones can make everything go south. I have several who were booted from a large flock like this.

Thank you for your input. :)
