Which BYC member scares you?

I own one. Have had my George for 18 years. I'm telling you, his wingspan is nowhere near two feet

I don't need to. I know what two feet is and it's not George's wingspan

I'm just kidding, Becky.

I know nothing about quail, but could you use that cage for quail? Turn it on it's side and reinforce the bottom somehow?

Pet cockatiels can often vary in size, and therefore their wingspans can as well. I believe you if you say that George's wingspan is not 20 inches. However, that does not mean that no cockatiel's wingspan is 20 inches.
I know the size sounds ridiculous, but to put it into perspective, a House Sparrow's wingspan is about 10 inches, and a cockatiel is quite a bit bigger than a House Sparrow.

I don't know anything about quail, either.
But really what I wanted was a pet bird for in the house and I guess this cage really won't work for that unless I modify it.

Just get the bird. It will probably not spend much time in the cage anyway. You will probably have it riding around on the rabbit's back before long while it runs circles around you legs.

I see the cat as a potential problem, though. I know you have watched looney tunes before

I laugh, but I can also 100% see this happening

I'd put a cockatiel in it I know the bar spacing is sketchy but I'd try it

 

[tripletfeb]

Or a conure

Oh, yes, me too
