@Chloe_s_mom I had an employee actually cut the piece for me, got it in my car, not a small feat as I have a Versa, took it home to only realize I miscalculated the size and ended up taping the pieces back together, thought I had the right dimensions only to have to resize it yet again...getting the sizing right is the hard part, I think next time, if I have to build one, I'm going to build the coro base first then put the grids together around it.
Not sure if you were aware, but Home Depot sells coroplast, they have it under a different name in the window/doors section, if you ever need anymore? Great cage btw!
@ChristyAnne Home Depot has those too, but only in white. As well as Walmart, as long as they have 9 squares across they are good to use. Also, I prefer to use zip ties as to the connectors they provide, more secure.
I do have to agree with other posters saying a 2x3 may be too small for boys (how old are yours, are they full grown?) you may be able to squeeze a 2x4 in the space looking at your picture?? Having a loft really doesn't count towards floor space unfortunately...it does help if they have somewhere to run away to? just make sure they don't trap each other...
Oh well, if they are 5 yrs old and were used to being in a small petstore cage, this will be heaven for them, so I don't see that being an issue for you. Cute set up by the way, love the usage of grids for the kids' toys!!
Welcome to the forum you've come to the right place. You can make a lid for your cage. In the picture section you can see pics of c&c cages with lids.
