the sad thing is they seem to only want the money for him, and they keep insisting to sell the cage with the bird. Stupid budgie cage. If I got him I'ld buy him a proper cage. Evil or Very Mad

I saw their other ad and they have tiels as well. Poor poor conure. i just hope he's out all day like sue said. They took the price down from 400 to 300. In a year I might make enough money for him...

The worst part is that cage is not even good for budgies. It's a really low quality cage, when I used to work at the pet store the suprvisor told me that it was crap and we should try to push it on people to get them sold.

Haley if you're considering buying this bird, i would ask A LOT of questions. And go to his house and see where the bird is coming from, because from those pictures I can see there's another cage beside this one so obviously he has more birds. I found ads on kiji before where a guy had like 10 different ads, in some he was trying to sell birds claiming he was looking for good homes for the birds because he could no longer keep them, and in other ones he was looking to buy birds...

I checked out the other ads. there are 2 for the conure. the other birds are cockatiels. the others all seem to be for bluetooth headsets, tables, and Dora the Explorer and Go Diego Go DVDs. Question maybe the other ads were removed?

If I ever buy a bird off of there I will ask A LOT of questions. I'ld hate for it to be a scam.

I'ld never put a bird in one of those cages. I don't like the plastic. the bird could fly into it and hurt itself or something

Oh no no, I didn't mean this guy had these ads, I was saying I saw another user on kijiii that had ads like that, that's why I'd be careful when buying anything on these websites... although I advertise my doves on kijii too Cool

Is it a bad cage, Shirin? I was planning on buying one some time ago. But then bigger. (As a holiday cage?)
We don't have those cages here so I can't see the quality!

Don't buy one, they're really poor quality! The food/water dishes are tiny and they get stuck, they're like drawer style.. defintely a waste of money.
