Thank you so much for responding! The dresser is made out of Pine which I heard is OK in it’s solid form. I know shelves can be a fall risk, but it would only have one small opening with some sort of a ramp down to the main level. Does that make sense? So each level would be solid no way to jump down the only way down would be through the whole down a ramp. Would that be OK? As for the size it would really help me to use the dresser I have, knowing that the materials will also be relatively expensive for me. I’m planning on getting a winter white or a campbells dwarf. I know size is only counting continuous floor space, and so I can’t add the square inches of the levels together. So should I really try to find a bigger cage or do you think the amount of enrichment could make up for the cage being a little under the ideal 600 inches ? Thank you so much!
