Re: Choroplast?

It's just a tad smaller than a 3 x 7 (something like 6.8. Obviously you can't have 6.8 of a grid so you may have to make it a 6 x 3)

Re: Choroplast?

You also have to figure out how high you want the sides to be. If you are using bedding like carefresh, yesterdays news, kd pine, aspen, etc., then you want 6"-8" sides. If you are going to use fleece then you could go with 3"-4" sides.

Re: Choroplast?

Be prepared to have shavings fly out everywhere when the piggers run. The cage looks nice Melody, how many pigs are you housing in it.
