I would guess that your cage is MUCH bigger than a large hagen vision 74 x 58 x 34cm! Definitely not big enough for 8 budgies to spend the night (unless it was some sort of emergency) Although during the London Riots, when someone set fire to a car just outside out house and it managed to set a tree alight. Paul had to carry a hagen vision, with 9 budgies in it outside while we waited for the fire crew to put it all out. I think they expected us to abandon the budgies and leave and were shocked when we brought them with us! The living room was filling with smoke as it was a summer night and the windows were open. Twelve budgies and a chocobo in one cage here, tonight. Unreal.

What a horrible experience, Marianne Marlow . I'm with you though, I would walk through fire to save my birbs. The elegance is 160 x 56 x 90cm. It seems very large - until it starts to fill with budgets!

As if! I'm not abandoning ship until my baby boy is safe with me!
(whenever the kids mess about near the gas cooker, I tell them. If the house catches on fire I'll have to go all the way up two floors to rescue Biscuit and if I can't get out on time it'll be their fault lol. Makes them behave)

Aww, they do look quite settled in that photo. All best buds. Who got turfed out? The riots were so scary to watch on the TV so it must have been really horrendous to live through. I wouldn’t be able to leave my animal family behind either. I can’t imagine the panic involved if there was a fire in the home but I’d definitely be shouting orders so I could get all my babies out with the humans.

There are actually 5 budgies in that hagen vision at night. I know that is more than recommended, but I cannot get any to relocate to other cages as they wont settle. We have 3 in 1, 5 in another and a hagen vision with just Penny in it. I'd like Chipper to move to Penny's for night time. Also Dinku to move to Daisy's then that would be 4-4-2 much better!

I think it’s fine Marianne Marlow because it’s only overnight. They spend their days being able to come and go for those able to do so. As long as they’re settled to sleep at night, if it ain’t broke… Though can see why you’d want to make the changes. Would Penny get grumpy with a young one in with her overnight do you think?

No, Penny wants Chipper to stay in with her. They preen eachother and he sometimes feeds her.
But if I try and lock him in for bedtime he tries to turn himself inside out to get back out of the cage!
