The Canary Cage.
It's Your Canary's Home...
Let's Make Sure We Get It Right.
The canary cage is more than just a place to keep your bird...it's your canary's home. Just as you need room to breath and move and stretch...so does your canary.
One of the things that is important to your canary's well-being is his cage. There are three things in particular that you need to keep in mind.
First make sure your canary has room to play. Pay attention to size and shape.
Canary Cage Size and Shape
The luxury custom cage above is perfect...but it also sells for more than $6000. I have a feeling you're leaning toward one of the more affordable canary cages below.
As stated above, your canary needs "room to breath and move and stretch". Make sure you get a cage that is right for a canary and not for other pet birds...Different birds have different needs regarding their cage.
Recommended Canary Cages...
There are a lot of canary cages out there that are all wrong...usually they're the wrong shape and size.
What shape is right?

Glad you asked...

In a nutshell, bigger is always better. The more room your canary has to fly around the cage, the better his health and happiness will be.
A square or rectangular cage is better than round.
Length across the cage is more important than height.
When you get your bird cage home, always do a quick visual inspection for loose or broken bars. More than one canary has lost a limb due to poorly constructed cages.

Next make sure the "neighborhood" is pleasant...
Location of the Bird Cage
Location. Location. Location.
Always make sure the spot where you place your bird's cage is in a good location.
Certain areas of your home could be death traps for your canary and others could just be downright uncomfortable. Windows, for example, can be terrible whether it is a hot day or a cool day.
Cool drafts can give your canary a chill which can result in a lowered immune system.
And...
Humans have all kinds
of terrible chemicals and other items in the home that can be deadly for your
canary. Be very careful using air fresheners, scented candles, smoky fireplaces, tobacco smoking, cleaning solutions, and overheating of Teflon pans.
Placing the cage
outside can be a real blessing on a nice day but it could also mean sudden
catastrophe. You'd be surprised how aggressive a blue jay or mocking bird can be. Also, mosquitos often carry diseases that can kill your canary.

Third, provide your canary's home with safe furnishings and accessories.
Canary Cage Furnishings and Accessories
Just like any other pet, a canary requires certain accessories that will make his life more comfortable.
First of all he needs good safe food dishes and waterers. Using a dish that absorbs moisture will promote bacteria growth and bacteria causes all kinds of health problems...use dishes made of the right materials.
Your canary cage will also need a
couple of good perches. Pay attention to style, size, and
materials to keep your canary's feet healthy.
Canaries can even get BORED so help
keep him entertained with a toy of some kind will be beneficial. Canaries love to pick up and carry strings around so try some sisal fibers which is also commonly used for building nests.

Breeding canaries need a special cage...one large enough to house a breeding pair and several young chicks.
The most useful canary breeding cage is double sided with a removable divider like the one below. Sometimes the male and female should be kept separate until they're ready to mate and raise a family together.
