Hiya pals and galls,
Since my lonely hen is getting a buddy or a partner soon, I figured I might want to provide suitable accomodation.
Unfortunately, I live on my own in a very small appartment, but I had some wasted space on my balcony.
Got really drunk one night, hatched a plan, and today I finished. The unique (I haven't seen it elsewhere at least) construction allows them to go outside whenever they want to (provided it is warm enough outside for me to have my window open), and gives me the option of airing the place out without having to fear an escape, which was something I unfortunately lacked a while back when the heat was unbearable. Oh, and the grasses are saplings, they'll become lush and sittable in no-time.
Cost: a little over 100 EUR
Time spent (re)measuring/(re)conceptualising: 3 hours
Time spent shopping/gathering: 4 hours
Time spent on construction: 8 hours (but it's my first time)
Hope this inspires someone in a similar situation to go for it and make do with what you have available!

It's very heartwarming to see how much she's apparently wanted another budgie to interact with. Hopefully I'll be posting pictures of some very interesting looking offspring soon!
