Title: Pumice stone as Lave ledge??
Post by: ExoticFamily on August 02, 2011, 10:04:27 PM

So my girlfriend brought home a Pumice stone last night to clean the BBQ pit last night! Once I seen it I started wondering if it is the same material as a lava ledge?? My local pet store has been out of the ledges for over a week, and the lady said it was basically just a pumice stone! 
My girlfriend also said they sell them as foot scrubs for callous feet! (she has straight rhino hoofs! haha lol... dont tell her I said that!)  rofl   :2funny:

So the question is... can I just get a pumice stone and attatch it to the cage so he can use it as a ledge??
Thank you for your time, and help!
