Corn cob bedding isn't really good to use, depending on which country you are in there may be much better alternatives & ones that won't spill out through the bars so much ( a little coming out & making a bit of a mess is all part of having a ham  ) digging & burrowing is all good natural behaviour so it is important that the substrate is deep enough for that, covering the door to the house is normal too, you could put a bendy bridge in front of the door to make it darker.
I would use a container of some sort for the sand rather than just using a bendy bridge to block off that area or sand will just get everywhere & it would be very difficult to sieve out any pee or just change the sand without doing a whole cage clean which you definitely don't want to do. |
Thanks again, I'll add more substrate as soon as possible then!
I'll change bedding type as soon as I'll end the one I currently have (at least here in Italy I can only find corn cob or wood chips, so I'll try that) and do as suggested!
