| The boys have a new cage
I finished the boys' new cage this weekend.  It is 3'X2'X2' and made out of melamine. I was originally going to make 4 doors, but they would have been really small doors and may have restricted ventilation. So, I went with two doors and it seems to be fine. I still need to put the shelves in (all they have is a middle floor right now) but they are enjoying their new home. I put their wheel back in and they have been going non-stop ever since.  I will take pics soon.

| We worked all day on Sunday to get it done. It was pretty simple except drilling the pilot holes was time consuming. | |

| They are pre-drilled holes for your screws.  We didn't want the melamine to crumble or split so we made pilot holes. | |
