OK, do you have to put your coroplast in your cage so that it is up on the side of the cage some?

Yes, the coroplast should be about 6 inches up the cage walls on every side for adult piggies (8 inches or more for baby pigs), check my gallery for pics of a cage with some coro already in there. ;)

If you're using fleece its not necessary to have such high sides, or any at all if you prefer. Its a matter of personal preference. I made my sides about 2" high.

Okay, I don't think I'll have enough coroplast for sides, so I'll just use the fleece. Also, if you have several small ones, is that okay to use?

Thats fine to use!, Coro is mainly to keep the bedding (sawdust, care fresh, megazord etc) in the cage.

Okay. But I want to get a big peice of fleece, for the rest of the cage. Is one layer fine? I'm going to get towels for the underlayer.
