Question
Hello, would you know if four week old baby guinea pigs can get stuck in the holes of the cages from cavycages.com? Because I am making a c&c cage but am not using corragated plastic instead I am putting it on a slightly larger table and using towels as bedding therefore I wont have bedding everywhere.

Answer
Yes they can get their heads stuck in the grids. Please use coroplast or some type of safe guard until they are bigger.
If the sides of the coroplast are at least 6 inches high, you won't have bedding everywhere. I have no problem with my C&C cages.

You can also use coroplast with towels and actually, if you don't have some kind fo sides, you will have poop on the floor as it will get kicked off the sides.
