Is this cage too big for my GC Conure?

[skypros]

I knew the cage was going to be big..... But I didn't think it was going to be this big
The bowls are 4-3/4" wide by 2" deep..... If I keep the cage, I have to wonder how I am going to modify the bowls so my GCC can use them?

Is this really too big of a cage for a little Conure????

You can always take the bowls out and buy smaller stainless steel ones that attach anywhere on the cage.

The main thing to look at with cage sizes is the bar spacing. 1/2 or 5/8" would be good for a Green Cheek. I couldn't find the spacing on the eBay ad. In the larger bar spacing that is meant for a large species they can get their head caught. Rare, but you do hear of it happening.

It is my understanding that there is no such thing as "too big." The more room they have to stretch out, the better (as long as the bar spacing is appropriate). If the food bowls are too big, just buy different ones

The bar spacing says about 2 cm. 1 inch is 2.5 centimeters so I'm thinking it would not be the best for a green cheek. I think it is odd that the bar spacing is the only measurement in centimeters and the rest are in inches.

I converted the bar spacing from cm to in because my country uses in, and its about .7 inches wide. I don't know what that is in fractions because math and I aren't friends, but the bar spacing would be your main concern.

As for the size itself, my green cheek has a cage larger than the one in the listing and he absolutely loves it! Bigger cages allow for more perches, toys, and things to keep them occupied during cage time.

that doesn't seem big thats the size both my green cheek and sun conure are in I've never had any problems with size before, but i guess its different with all birds

Thank You all for your input...... I put her in the cage..... and she seams like she likes it. The bar spacing is 3/4" measured center to center.... Or 5/8" from bar to bar.
I went out and cut manzanita branches and have started "furnishing" the cage.... I hope there isn't anything wrong with fresh manzanita???

Here are a couple of pictures of Shasta and her new cage.
