I know it probably sounds silly, but i line their inside bit with newspaper, and then a layer of hemcore and then straw on top, and i've done this since i got them late last year, because i thought they'd need it to keep warm :oops: . Do they not actually need a bedding like straw to snuggle down in? I could just give them the newspaper and hemcore and be done with it?

 

The straw is a pain to use, i like to pick out the poo every day and with straw a majority of the straw goes in the bin daily because it just all gets stuck up in the strands and needs to be practically all changed every day!
