 You know I get really miffed when someone comes here and asks advice, then
when he is given advice, he gets all ratty and starts abusing those who
offered the advice. If you made a mistake and stuffed up, spending money on
a cage which is dangerous and unsuitable for your birds. If you didn't do
any significant research othe than ask someone who has kept similar birds in
an equally unsuitable cage "for years" , how is that the fault of Jynx or
anyone else who is pointing out your mistake in the hope that you will
rectify it to keep your birds safe?
