What ever drops through my letter box every morning, makes good cheap bedding, and gives the ferrets some thing to read if they get bored

ok thanks, i think i will use newspaper and i will also chuck a few jumpers and things in there aswell. they have an old pair of kids trousers in with them at the moment with the legs cut off and shredded up and the waist/bum bit whole like a bag and the curl up and sleep huddles up in that top bit.

 

why cant you get straw or shavings form the shop mate sounds like you just give them what you got you want them to work for you and get you rabbits yet your not prepaired to give them the best in return

Ive been using shreads of old clothes in the box they sleap, with plenty of wood shavings in the main compartments. Will use shredded newspaper in warmer months I think.

In winter I use the cheap loft insulation made from recycled bottles you get from B&Q. It lasts for ages and is really cozy for the little stinkers. Its not itchy its like the stuffing out of a teddy or something ,they love it. Just chuck it out when its smelly.

 

Would that not Fcuk up their innards if swallowed while eating etc?

It doesn't fall apart, it holds together very well, the strands are quite long.Not one bit leaves thier nest box. Would be imposable for them to consume it so no worries there. Give it a try see what you think.

 

I'll have a look down b&q feela

These are biodegradable which keeps the eco-worrier wife happy... Same stuff as tea bags.
