Unless you’re going to let your bird fly around the house, you’re going to need a cage. When buying a cage, there are a few things you need to consider. Two of the main considerations include size and material. Here are a few tips for choosing a canary cage.

Size

Size is one of the most important things to consider. These are pretty small birds. This means they can easily fit between the bars of the cage if they are spaced too far in between. Therefore, make sure you choose a cage with half an inch of spacing at most.

Shape

Another important consideration when choosing canary bird cages is its shape. The most common shape is the tall dome. Canaries don’t fly vertically. They fly horizontally. With this in mind, try to get a design that’s pretty wide.
