Floor time grid anchoring

It is easiest for me to block off a corner with grids for my piggies for floor time. I have pig who for some unknown reason loves chewing on the metal grids (just in floor time not in her cage, unless she knows carrots are coming). When she chews on the grids she tends to knock them over. Does anyone have any ideas on how to connect the girds to the wall (minimizing holes) or anchor them so that she can't pick them up and knock them over?

Re: Floor time grid anchoring

One of my pigs chews on the grids during floor time too. He doesn't touch them in the cage. I give them a pile of fresh hay during floor time and chew toys (one of my pigs drags them into the pigloo and hides them) so there is no reason that I can think of that causes the chewing.

So I would appreciate any ideas too.

Re: Floor time grid anchoring

just an idea, I've never tried this: you can get a clip that clips cables/wires to walls(I think they are just the right size for the grid bar), stick them on the wall, and clip the grids onto them.
