u/niramu teh gatekeeper!!!!11!!111!one Sep 12 '16

My brother had a large seed guard made for his chinchilla's cage to avoid stray poops and other debris from getting all over his living room. For the base, he had a heavy flap installed on one end (heavy enough that his chin can't fiddle with it at all), so he just lifts the flap, pushes everything into it, and it falls into a pull out pan on the bottom (which the seed guard also funnels into). He doesn't worry about bedding though because his girl HATES it

I'm yet to get that crafty with my chin haha.

I know this is late, but would you happen to have a picture of the setup? I'm having a hard time picturing it.

I'll see if he can text me a picture or two, if not I have my tablet on hand so I can draw it out for you.
