Are these grids safe??

[auburnmare5]

I bought grids today for my first C+C Cage from Bed Bath & Beyond.

I thought they looked rather large when I opened them so I measured them.

They are 14.5" square.

I measured the holes and they were 1.5". Should I be concerned about my pig getting stuck?

Thank You for reading

If this helps, my pig is not pregnant, and is 4 years of age.

On the home page it says do not use grids with inner square spaces greater than 1.5 inches.

So I guess it is okay if your pigs can't get their heads through the bars.

Ya, he should be fine. Thats what the normal spacing for grids are.

Thank you to Jenni_Feathers and newpiggiemommy.

Your responses make me feel better because I know that he should be safe.

I didn't leave him in it overnight.

Thanks again

Did you make your cage yet?

[auburnmare5]

No I have not built my cage.
Well sort of. I have only bought grids and I set the grids up and my pig is in them now.
I have been checking Coco and he has not been doing anything that seems alarming yet.
Is there any concerns that I should have?
If there is, what can I do to make it safer?
As I said previously, my pigger is not pregnant, and is 4 years old.

I think you're all set. I bet he's really enjoying his new pen!

[auburnmare5]

Yes steve_and_pigs, you are right he is.

the first thing he did, and i am not kidding, is he looked around for 3 seconds and did about 10 popcorns and did like 5 laps.

I was so happy, because he looked at me like "I L-O-V-E love this thing, it is so roomy and I can go nuts!"

Even my mom and dad agreed that he is noticeably happier and they can see why I was begging for a C+C Cage!
