eggysoldiers Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 So my girls seem very happy with out little set up, and have claimed the bench in the front garden as their own for snoozing when they are tired of free ranging! I have two questions about my classic though. The first is that the base, under the tray, seems almost porous. It has little black dots appearing that look like tiny holes - is that normal? The second is that the woodchip keeps getting stuck in the slot for securing the door - has anyone got any tricks to stop this!? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patricia W Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 (edited) I poke out anything stuck in the closing mechanism with a long stick. You might find Aubiose is less of a problem. Not sure about the porous holes. There are imperfections in the plastic so it might be they’ve accumulated dirt. Do you have a picture?

Some of them have teeny air bubbles in the mould, so the dirt gets caught in the holes in use. Soon comes out with a jet wash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
