Cages – C
What are the C & C cages and what makes them so popular? Let's look at the cage of C & C:
By we can say, the original C & C cage design has been developed (and indeed popular) some years ago by an innovative pig rescue organization Guinea. This style of cage was developed as a matter of necessity for the guinea pig shelter could efficiently accommodate a large number of pigs in a way cost-effective. That is why today, C & C cage tends to have a very low cost per square inch of living space – in other words – C & C cages tend to offer a lot of cages for the money.
The mysterious name of C & C originates from the two main materials used to build this category of the cage for small animals: Cubes and Coroplast.
The frame and the wire lattice portion of the cage is constructed of wire grids normally used assembling storage cube wire netting. These are often square wire 14 inches long on each edge. This type of shelving is often seen in shops or boutiques where the clothes or other items shown in the matrices of wire mesh cubes or boxes. Therefore, the first C in C & C comes from the word cube.
The second C in C & C comes from the fundamental materials used in construction of box C & C – Coroplast. Coroplast is a brand name and is essentially a contraction the description of the product: corrugated plastic. Coroplast is corrugated PVC (polyvinyl chloride), plastic sheeting and is used to form the sand bed or a deposit at the bottom of the cage. This material is commonly used by sign-makers in making signs wrong economic time.
Coroplast has some remarkable properties that make it very suitable for application in the field of pet cage.
First, it is constructed of PVC (yes, the same basic material used in PVC pipe). This material is chemically inert, which means water, solvents, oils and other chemicals in general, have no effect on him. What this means for the animal-owner in question is a) that is resistant to water and (most important) proof of urine. b) soap, detergents, vinegar and other cleaning agents not damaged. c) is indigestible – stomach acid is not affected. This means that if a pig becomes a masticator, the material will pass harmlessly through your digestive system. d) Coroplast is not toxic and is certified to be safe for use in contact with food.
C & C cages have become very popular as a DIY type of project. However, in recent years, networks of metal wire proper have become increasingly difficult to obtain. Department store chains domestic storage kits have been for several years bucket. Until recently, most of which include 14-inch squares with 9 holes on each side (9×9 matrix). These networks openings of about 1.5 square centimeters.
Recently, at least one major chain has been redesigned this product drastically. It currently consists of two 14-inch varieties of networks: networks with an array of 5×5 spaces (approx. 2.8 inch spacing) and networks with a 8×8 array (approx. 1.75 inch spacing).
CAUTION: Both network configurations (5×5 and 8×8) should be strictly avoided by the owners of a guinea pig.
5×5 grids are too large and not effective in containing the size pigs of many. 8×8 networks are still a little too big and pose a potential choking hazard. We have received the bulletins from various guinea pig rescue organizations warning us to avoid 8×8 grids. They cited several incidents involving strangulation these networks with larger openings and advised us to use only 9×9 grids in our guinea pig cage designs.
C & C cages are almost always built as DIY projects and tend to be much higher (and much healthier for your pork) than standard manufactured "pet store cage." Generally, one of three approaches is taken by the builders of the cage do yourself C & C. The expert do-it-yourselfer creates a cage of nothingness – the design of the cage and the purchase of materials by themselves. The industrial-yet-frugal do-it-yourselfer also buy materials on their own, but only after buying the plans of the cage of a competent designer cage C & C. And the clever do-it-yourselfer take the easy, proven, uncomplicated route to purchase a package kit C & C cage – complete with materials and instructions – a good reputation and proven C & C cage seller.
