My budgies are picky. I tried to buy "nests" from the store and then built my own box out of wood. Birds have never used either or even bothered to investigate, although my wooden box's performance was very close to this plastic box's. This thing started almost immediately and after two weeks the birds are quickly moving on to their first clutch! They really like it. My dog (Bill) rarely goes out and my mom often drops in between meals. Since they like the top perch best, I set it up so the hole is almost the same height and cut the side of the cage so the entrance is straight. and as obvious as possible (ease of access is key). I also had to bend the cage's wires to allow the hangers to go through and ended up cutting about three more to allow access. The cut ends were pushed outwards to touch the bird box, filling the gap between the cage and the box and posing no danger to the birds. This isn't the solution I recommend if you value your cage very much, but it works. I think that's totally ugly. Any metal snips or 6 inch wire cutters should work just fine. Update 3-3-18: Stubborn budgies might pull the plug out of the box! They must have been working on it for some time but one of my birds managed to remove it.
