I think I'm going to go with the Chateau cage by Marvelous for Sunny. It's 24 wide X 22 deep X 30 height, and I could get another identical cage right next to it for Sprout Right now, Sunny and Sprout are sharing the top portion of an HQ quad cage with the center divider removed, so they only have 40 X 20 X 20 for the two of them,and I can still get plenty of toys and they are able to move around quite a bit.

The extra two inches of depth on the Marvelous Chateau (22" instead of 20") gives a whole other "row" for extra toys with more room in the center for moving around, and the extra height allows for boings and such. Sunny flies outside the cage, so I think this will work well.

They really are getting along fabulously well, but their digs are just a bit too small, and I hate to invest in one larger cage. Just my luck they will start fighting and then I will have to buy yet another cage. I simply don't have room for two flight cages or two very large cages.

It took me forever to settle on this plan! LOL

I had a hard time finding a cage at least 24" wide that I could afford with 1/2" bar spacing. Two !8" X 18" cages would just be too small for permanent digs - not for the kind of money you pay for wrought iron cages, anyway!

I'm not going to open the top, but instead will place a play gym, sisal perches, etc. up there.
