Hey everyone ! I'm new here, my name's Estella and I'm close to bringing home a sweet little cockatiel ! I stumbled across this forum and decided to join . I have a a question about housing... I have narrowed down the cages down to two-
Option 1 (Yaheetech)- https://www.amazon.co.uk/Monumart-Cockatiel-Lovebird-Birdcage-Durable/dp/B07FFTLS1Y/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=Yaheetech+52"&qid=1595879865&sr=8-3
Option 2 (Little Friends Hamberley)- https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B005CAY8QA/ref=ask_ql_qh_dp_hza
Option 1 dimensions- 79 x 51.8 x 94.5 cm (LxWxH) OR 31.1" x 20.4"x 37.2" with
1.5cm/0.6" bar spacing
Option 2 dimensions-77x 54 x 91 cm (LxWxH) OR 30.3"x 21.25"x 35.8" with 1cm/0.4" bar spacing
Option 1 has no feeder doors, just two main front doors.
Option 2 has one main front door and two upper feeder doors.
In terms of volume/internal space, option 1 is bigger ( Option 1- 386,713 cm², Option 2- 378,378 cm²)
However, I'm worried about the gap on option 1 between the thick horizontal bar through the middle of the panels and the vertical bars- I'll attach a picture to illustrate. Thank you so much in advance to anyone who replies, it means a lot to me ! Any advice is greatly appreciated!

PS: Sorry if this post is too long... Here is the photo of the gap I was worried about on option 1 (Yaheetech cage). I may be overthinking this though!
