You're best to look into the Craigs's list, Kijiji or local ads that posted in your area. Some bird clubs & associations also post Classified section.

Online - I'm not sure.

I will give you word of warning about using craigslist. Understand that the cages will be used(most likely). You need to do a really good inspection and make sure that the cage has no chipped paint and that you sterilize the cage before use. I think that you can use bleach to clean the cage just make sure that the cage airs out for a few days so there will be no fumes.

My reccomendation  Reply with quote  

Hi, I would recommend parrot cages at "parrot cages for sale". Click on the link and it will take you there. I recently bought a cage there and I was very happy with it, it had been tested and was non-toxic. Hope that helps.

I bought a kings original cage for my african grey. I wanted one that would be large and last through the years. I have had it two years now and have no complaints. It weighs 100lbs and is very sturdy. I bought a large hagen cage as well but after the same amount of time it has a wobble to it. You have to really watch how it is assembled. Look for one with a large door so you can easily wipe down the inside, seed skirt helps keep things much cleaner too. I also like the play top option. My cages are black & black/silver and I find it matches the rooms decor if that might matter to you. You probably already know but avoid round cages, ones with pinch points at the top and look for cages that have at least two sides with horizontal bars for climbing.

Not sure where you are located but Petcetera is having a large sale on bird/parrot cages. I know of a store in Newmarket Ontario but there are others. Here is the link:
