Max Gets New Shelving
After reviewing the shelving in Max’s enclosure, I knew that it was time for replacements. I thought rough-sawn wood to give him grip when it got wet. It was too rough and after painting & installing, I had to sand it down just a bit to his liking. Some of the wood that I had initially used was eight years old and had held very well over the years, but it was time to upgrade. I do have some rust issues because of him urinating out the cage thus rusting the wire and that’s next to be fixed. Here are some before and after photos.
