Hi,
I'm having trouble with my two girls, Lola and Wednesday, wasting their hay. We have tried several types of hay holders but they keep pulling it out and throwing it on the ground. I've seen them dig through their hay, knocking several pieces on the ground, just to get to a "perfect" piece of hay. Then they take two bites and throw it down! :hair:
Not only does it make it a lot harder to keep their cage clean (not to mention the floor for about a 3 foot radius around the cage) but it's so wasteful. They eat maybe 10% of their hay and line their cage with the rest of it. I can't afford to waste so much hay and it's driving me crazy to throw out bags of it every time we clean the cage. :banghead:
Has anyone else had this problem? Would it help to switch to hay cubes?
Thanks for any help you can give.
