The ultimate outdoor cham cage....ideas?

beardiedude Apr 15, 2006 06:13 PM

Hey guys....

Well the outdoor cage i setup fell apart, literally! The naisl must havebben too small so when a wind came it blew the cage into seperate peices

What types of wood do you guys use for outdoor cages? And what nails and hinges should use? Im goin to home depot tommorow so it would be great if someone could give me a supply list.

I plan to make a cage 4 feet wide x 4 feet long x 6 fee tall...

Thanks in advance....

Hey,

I built my cages out of 2x2's. Oh, and make sure you use screws, not nails. Good luck, and have fun!

And make sure you take into account how heavy you want it to be. If you are going to have to move it around, use smaller pieces of wood, and vice-versa.

P.S.-Home Depot closes at 7pm (maybe earlier on Easter Sunday, so make sure u got all the stuff before they close!

2x2's are what i used. Dont need new wood then! Screws would help though! What size did you use for your cages?

I am so jealous of your caeg units! How your chams doin?
