I have done a lot of thinking to the pros and cons of switching from a C&C to a MW cage and I found that MW will probably fit my lifestyle better when it comes to maintenance and expansion.
This is what I currently have. Its a 2x5 C&C. I also have upgraded my cage a few times to get to this size, and each time I find that I am spending more money on cubes and coroplast, than I would like, I recently thought that I would actually like to go bigger, but I don't want to go through the hassle of buying even more cubes and new coroplast to make the base, and then cutting all the cable ties and breaking this thing down to rebuild it again.
A pro of having a MW cage that I like, is that I can just buy an expansion and I can just keep adding whenever I would like without having to tear apart everything to rebuild it all. and right now they are 36 bucks on amazon...thats less than what I would pay for more cubes and coroplast... So when I get paid tonight, I am buying some MW cages + ramp covers and im going to connect them together. The only thing that I am trying to figure out, is a stand, I understand that the base is a canvas (Not to sure how floppy it is). I plan on sewing some fleece liners for it all, I was wondering if I could use all the cubes I have and make a stand for it and with the thick liners im going to make, the pigs shouldn't feel the cubes grid holes maybe?
What do you guys use as a stand for your MW cages? Or do you just have them sit on the ground?
Thanks in advance for the help
