"brain fart" > good idea


Every day this week I have been putting a paper bag or a box that is on it's way to recycling in their house and for the day they explore and POOP alot in there. Then in the morning I throw it out and put in a new one. This has cut down poops in the rest of the cage drasticly. Oh yeah, they also pee in there alot so it gets removed too.

Does anyone see any downsides to this? As I can't so far and I don't want to continue doing anything that may not be the best for my piggers.
 
I found the same thing with my piggies. Whenever I have a shallow empty box I will put it in the cage with some hay in it. They love having the extra hay, and I love that they use it as a litter box area. When I redesign my cage/cages I am going to add a litter box/ hay box area for them. It will cut down on the amount of times a week I will have to wash their fleece.
