I wanted to comment on how to attach the bent-grid hayrack to the cage without having to cut off zip-ties every time you change the fleece...

I used zip-ties to attach my bent-grid hayrack to a piece of coroplast, which is cut a few inches larger than the hayrack all the way around. Then I attach that to the inside of the cage with binder clips. It holds the hayrack securely to the side of the cage, but removes easily when I change my fleece. And the coroplast back keeps the hay from falling out of the cage, too.

I also used larger zip-ties across the ends of the bend grid to close it off and keep the piggies from climbing in. In 3 months of using this hayrack, I've only had a pig climb into it one time...and I believe she did it out of desperation to get away from her nearly 3 week old son who was getting rather frisky and aggressive in the last couple of days he was in the cage with her.
