Before or after? Okay I have two catalogs, and one recommends galvanized before welding wire and the other recommends galvanized after welding. It would seem to me that galvanizing after the wire was welded would result in a cage that would be less likely to rust in the long run, but I really don't know much about wire or galvanizing so my instincts may be off.
Size of cage? I want the buns to have as much room as possible, but I also need to be able to reach them. I'm thinking Californians and New Zealands, what is the optimum cage size?
I'm currently working and I'd like to get the best equipment I can before I cut back on my hours and become semi-retired. Is there a company that is a cut-above and offers the best quality? Once I retire I'm going to have to live very frugally, so I'd like to purchase equipment that will last for a long, long time. I don't mind paying more IF it is worth it.
Nest boxes? Wood or metal? It gets into the twenties and occasionally the teens here, if that is a consideration.
If you were going to hang cages up against an outbuilding in a warm summer area, would you do it against the north side of the building?
Thanks for helping! I'm sorry there are so many questions but I want to do right by my critters-to-be. I'm so glad this forum exists and that you all are so willing to help us newbies!
