Thinking About Making C&c Cage

[maxinedawn]

I don't know if c&c would be a good idea? I use Fitch bedding and I was worried the correx would be to slippery for gp. I read on here some where one else had that problem with wood shaving. I don't want to use fleece I've tried it and hated it. Does anyone know if I might have a problem with correx

I currently use Fitch in my C&C and it's great, the pigs love the extra space and the softness the Fitch provides! I'd recommend

I use fitch in my C&C but I have it lined with oilcloth and then I put puppy pads under my fitch. There's probably no need for the oilcloth layer - I'm just a little bit precious about things so wanted the extra layer, it definitely protects against pee stains if your pigs choose a particular corner to saturate!

LidiaMinx do you find the correx to slippery for piggys?

Thanks Nicola. I've been wondering for days what to put on the floor for bonding. You have helped me answer 2 questions at the same time x

They've chewed it a little but not much really. But then mine aren't big nibblers!

Will think about getting some. Mine are currently on fleece. I love using fleece but it is a bit heavy-duty on the laundry side of things.

i use a shower curtain which you can get dirt cheap as a waterproof layer then fleece. I know you dont want to use fleece all teh time but as a layer when bonding over the shower curtain is great.
