Ok don't laugh at me, but I read somewhere online that cardboard boxes make the best brooders because you can add onto them. Well... that isn't exactly what we did but we did have tons of cardboard and a lot of gorilla tape and various bits of fencing I washed (for fear of any bird poo on them, and some how we wound up with this. The lid is the only thing we could find and don't worry it was very well tested by shaking, throwing things on top of it, and bumping the box around (I've been trying to figure out a different system for a lid to no avail -_-, I didn't think about that when I made this thing so big). I used puppy pads on the bottom and pine shavings on top of those... they dislike letting them lay flat and pretty.
Even though it looks really hodgepodge and crazy they seem to like it. The only thing they don't like is water without shavings in it. -_- I'm going to make a barrier between the lamp and the rest of the cage tonight though. Little boogers are starting to jump really high.
Great brooder...would love to see if folded up when you're done with it.
