So very soon I should be able to start collecting things for my C&C cage! I know someone on here mentioned something about looking for grids on craigslist, but I was wondering what they would be called exactly because not only looking on craigslist but other sotres I've kind of been at a loss for what to call them.

I usually searched for wire grid or wire shelving. They are often called different things so i would use different combinations of search terms. I think the ones I found on Craigs list were under wire grid. She ended up selling me like 45 multi color grids for $15 I think. It was a great deal. Keep searching different things until you find them. I also found a good deal at Sears. They were advertised for 19.97 or something per any online and said my local store had five boxes left. I couldn't find them so I asked for help. Turns out they were in the back because they were on clearance for 9.97 a box! I bought every box they had knowing I would never find them cheaper lol

Good luck! Cage building is addictive!

Great to see you selflessly giving to your pigs. They will reward you with unconditional love and admiration. Can't beat that as a gift :)

I'm duelly enrolled right now at a community college hoping to get a head start on getting my master's degree in zoology, so they understand that it's more than just a phase and most of the time they are, but thanks :)
