Default Bin Cage Shelf??

Sorry another thread... Well as you have guessed I am making a bin cage, I want to make a second level and was thinking of using a piece of wood... Can I just use a 'random' piece of wood?
Thanks!

How to add another level to a cage this might help, its a bit easier than wood thats for sure.

well if the edges are smooth and you can attach it i don't see why not.
But you may want to use plasticoted wood, or plasticote it yourself to avoid it getting messy

But it may be too heavy for the plastic to support

another option is a free standing wooden shelf. Like the trixe guinea pig shelter or hamster steps
