Okay. So my cage is gonna need a lot of help lol. I have two sows, Bailey Noel and Matchi. I never posted Matchi's adoption cause I kept forgetting, but I adopted her at 3 on the two months ago from CCR (Cali Cavy Rescue). She's a runt, who loves to escape! She can fit her head up to her shoulders through the bars - - She is 5 ½ months now! I just moved, so at the moment they are in an XL dog crate (my flight got pushed back 2x so my mom didn't have the time to get me the supplies before I landed. I don't recommend United). Tomorrow we are going around and getting them everything they need for their cage!
So here are my questions :
1) Is a 2x5 with a 2x2 offset loft big enough for them? I don't think Matchi will get very big, but if you think I should go bigger, let me know[emoji4]
2) How high of coroaplast do I need so Matchi can't climb it? She's done well with 6" at my dad's, but she is a climber and will climb when I make veggies. Would 7" / 8" be good, or to high?
3) I'm getting the coroaplast from Home Depot - - How much would I need?
4) I've considered grids for a lid, but I've heard closet shelving. Opinions on which is better?
5) How much fleece would I need for cage + loft, and have extra to make stuff?
6) How do I make a ramp?
7) Can someone link the gallery so I can get some cage ideas? I'm on a tablet & can not find it lol
Thank you! x
