- - The Waterslager Show Cage - -

by
Ludovic Nicolle and Darrell Horst

This is the cage Pierre Nicolle made so popular here in North America. Pierre has moved to France and is currently not making the cages. With the help of his son, Ludovic, we have compiled the specifications for this cage.

We hope these specs and photo's will help any craftsmen be able to make these waterslager show cages.
