    Bedding Best beddings for cages?

    Fleece is great, but is quite a bit of work. It is really based on preference. Fleece, carefresh, wood pellets are all great. I personally have never used shavings though

    Wood Pellets/Chips Is douglas fir wood pellets okay?

    So, Im looking into using wood pellets for bedding and I found golden fire wood pellets. It says it is made of 100% douglas fir, but does not mention anything about hard or softwood. I know a lot of people use pine, but is douglas fir okay?

    C&C I have questions about building

    Actually a 4x4 is larger than a 2x6 because it is over 21 sq ft while a 2x6 is a little over 16 sq ft.

    Coroplast Building a custom C&C cage need help finding custom coroplast.

    You can go to https://www.guineapigcagesstore.com/coroplast-bases and get a pre-cut and scored coro base, but they don't have any that fit your measurements. The bases on the site are a little narrower, if that works for you. It is cheaper just to buy a sheet of coro and cut and score it...
