Adding maximum safe bar spacing would help.  I have two cages that are a good size for a cockatiel except the bars are 1 inch apart which lets out their use for a tiel.

Dude's regular cage is a 38 x 26 x 6 feet tall with one inch spacing.  It has four feeding cups, one water bottle, five perches, a toy bowl filled with feet-toys and usually at least 4 hanging toys.  He has more than enough room in this cage.  If he is in the middle he can extend his wings fully with room to spare.  He seldom makes use of the bottom 18 inches of his cage -- it is only on a rare occasion that he will go down to the cage bottom to retrieve a fallen toy.

 

But when we go to FLA he has a much smaller cage -- maybe 36 x 24 by 36.  This is used primarily as a sleeping cage as when we are there we have no work or school so he's pretty much out with us all day.  And of course when we are on the road he is in his travel cage.

This is a sooper idea!  Now....I've gotta go back to the other computer to find the stuff I've been keeping in my favorites.  Don't have nutt'n on the laptop.
