Question on ferret nation cages?

[kerri101]

I am going to be buying a new cage in a month or so...Im looking at the ferret nation cages but I see the bottom tray is plastic and the sections that divide the cages? what is the easiest way to modify them ...

or maybe I am looking at them wrong and the divider is metal? I dont know I haven't seen one in person...Im thinking I will go with a double tall one in case one day I get another chin when I am ready ..

My cage now does have the plastic slide out tray chin has never chewed on it ...

You can also get metal trays for them. I think they are called BASS pans.

There is a metal divider grid that comes with the cage, you build it with it in, or out. It has the cut out in it, and so does the plastic pan that sits on top. If you build it with the divider in, and you want to make it two seperate cages, a "Chin Chiller" (marble slab) fits exactly on top of the cut out to close it up nicely.
