  1. Big bird in a small cage can lead to injuries at it may try to escape and get its body parts stuck in between the bars of the cage causing injuries to it's beak, foot or wings. The thickness of the bars can be of prime significance since birds may well bend or even break bars that are too thin.

  2. Bar spacing is very important for the health and safety of the bird. Horizontal bars are for the birds to climb and important movement. If the distance is too small, that you are not able to see and enjoy your pet. If the distance is too large, the bird could get its head, and not serious damage. For the small bird cage, a bar spacing of no more than 5 / 8 inch is recommended, while the spacing should be used for large bird cages, a bar spacing of 1-1/4 inches or more.
