Coating on a bird cage

[Louie]

Hi, I am looking for a new cage for my young indian ringneck. I have found a good cage but was wondering if epoxy coating is good and safe for birds??

Epoxy coatings (powder and painted/baked) are the standard among bird cages. As long as the material itself is child/pet safe and not lead based it should be fine.

Thanks Melika. Also is a cage 53cm by 53cm by 70cm high ok for 1 male ringneck who is out of his cage whenever we are home??
