in the new issue of bird talk, king's cages has an advertisement for their new line of aluminum travel cages. they actually have a decent sized macaw one, too! they look pretty nice, are collapsible, and come with a perch and food cups. there is no information about them yet on king's site. i e-mailed them to check on pricing.

have you guys seen them? what do you think?

Hi Emily! I will look today. Ruby says "I love you Ivy!"

They're up on the site now;

Looks really nice! Nice feature that there are hidden magnets in the door so it doesn't rattle. What's your thoughts about the Macaws having to keep their tail out vs. down?

Is aluminum safe for birds?

Yes, it's safe. They're probably using anodized aluminum. I would think regular would be too soft.

they are too pricey for me right now, but they ARE super nice. ivy seems to love having her tail out, she likes to "walk". i think they can be comfortable in either position.

The king cages web site is a nice site to keep for future reference of my next bird lol, whatever it maybe and the idea for travel cages that are collapseable, is a nice concept to remember also. Thanks for the Information. ~Jenna
