I’ve been keeping parakeets since I was 12 years old, a passion sparked by my family’s love for pets. Growing up, we shared our home with dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, hermit crabs, and tropical fish, but it was my blue and white parakeet named Pipet—named after a 7th-grade science class—that ignited my lifelong affair with birds. Except for my college years, I’ve always had at least one or two companion parakeets brightening my days.
When I met my husband, my Los Angeles apartment housed two lively parakeets. As we prepared for a cross-country move, they joined the adventure, securely packed in their cage inside the Jeep with a window view of the passing scenery. We even sneaked them into hotels under the cover of night, and they paused in the parking lot at Elvis’s Graceland. Those feathered friends thrived for many more years. Today, my children are growing up with the same joy, toddling to the 25-year-old cage that now shelters Bluey and Sunny, our current duo who’ve been with us for a few years.
During quarantine, with everyone homebound like our birds had always been, we tackled home projects—clearing closets and rearranging spaces. It felt right to give the parakeets an upgrade too. A fresh environment can do wonders for pets, much like best diet for pigeons supports their health.
The parakeets in the Geo Bird Cage
Discovering the Omlet Geo Bird Cage
I’ve collaborated with Omlet for years, known for innovative chicken coops, habitats for dogs, hamsters, and now birds. Their new Geo Bird Cage caught my eye immediately. Its unique hexagonal design, stylish shape, and spacious interior stood out—no ordinary cage. Videos showcased its features, confirming it was ideal for Bluey and Sunny, offering far more room than their old setup.
Customization is a highlight: choose any color combo to suit your decor. I selected a teal base with gold mesh, plus a cover and standing base. My daughter counted down the days until arrival.
Assembly and First Impressions
Assembling the Omlet Geo Bird Cage
The package arrived beautifully organized, with clear instructions. My daughter and I assembled it in about an hour, snapping hexagon pieces together effortlessly. The centralized food and water stations, with a tray below for seed hulls, are genius for easy maintenance and reduced mess—perfect for busy households.
Once ready, transitioning the birds was seamless. Tucked between a chair and window, the Geo Bird Cage blends seamlessly, like it was designed for our living room.

Key Features That Make It Stand Out
The included perches fit parakeet feet perfectly and adjust easily to promote exercise, prevent boredom, and simplify cleaning. This thoughtful design encourages natural behaviors while keeping the space hygienic.
For bird nutrition, pairing this cage with quality options like wild harvest cockatiel blends ensures balanced diets, complementing the habitat’s benefits.
