Fleece Fleece flippers and the coroplast tray

[HopefulRomantic]

Hi all,

I've been using fleece flippers for I guess about over a year. I love how I can clean and just change the sections needed, but I had issues with them when I first started using, which bowed the coroplast out. I thought it was the way I was putting them together, so kept at it, working on my assembling of them. But now over a year, it still has pushed my coroplast walls out.

I haven't been able to find anywhere that anyone else has had this issue. I did have a C&C cage from piggy bedspread (a 2x4 cage), and wondered if perhaps the dimensions are slightly off than one from the GP Cage Store.

I think I am going to buy a new tray & grids for my girls, and re-purpose this one.
I just don't want the bowing to occur again, so I am debating about switching to cage liners, and just use the flipper sleeve & u-haul to give extra padding or material in the heavy soiled hay area (they use it as a potty also).

Does anyone have any input or suggestions? I don't mean this as an attack on the flippers, please don't take it this way, just trying to find some answers.

Can't you just trim the flippers a bit?

Such an easy solution & answer, I hadn't thought of that! Funny, how that goes sometimes!

Thanks so much, bpatters, I will try that!
