Most breeders have the best success with caging anywhere from 18" square up to 48" long and anything in between. We are currently using double breeder units with each side measuring 18"x18"x20" with about 20 inches between units. If cages are placed too close together, the birds may spend all their time arguing and fighting with any neighbor they can see. A visual barrier must be placed between each cage to avoid potential problems. A Parrotlet will kill its mate to keep it away from, or from flirting with others. Plans are being drawn for our new aviary which will allow for larger breeding units as well as large flights for juveniles.
