    For anyone who's curious, the hand stitch used on the liner is called a blanket stitch. You can find tutorials on how to blanket stitch on KZread.

    bbangtanlyfe It depends on how you like to do things. Some people find traditional bedding easier and better to use while I definitely will never stop using fleece. In my opinion, fleece is cheaper and cleaner and easier to use than normal bedding but if you would like to know extra details, I have an older video called All About Chinchilla Beddings you could get more information from😊

    It's very simple. All you do is buy a plank of chinchilla safe wood and cut it into whatever sizes you want. Then you drill in two holes slightly smaller than your screws and push those in so that they fit snugly. Then add a washer to the screws, attach the ledge to the cage, and use a wingnut to tighten it. :)
