Cages / Re: cages

For a wire-bottomed cage (which I do shy away from) I have heard to use 1/2" X1/2" spacing.  Would 1/4"X1/4" still be OK, or do you think they would get their toes stuck or something?

I lost my Miko two days ago.  He was only around 3. . . He was the sweetest thing in the world.   Miko talked like a baby chin and he actually liked to cuddle. 

I miss you Miko.  Now you can run on the giant chin wheel in the sky all night long.  See you again some day. . . .

Yes, Jo Ann, it's almost as tall as a person.  The cage itself is 55" and with the stand it its 58."  I like chins to have as much room as they can.  The price is really good too.

It doesn't have a plastic pan.  I thought it would be great since it is a giant cage.  I don't think the doors slide either.   I wasn't planning on putting a breeding pair in it.  I guess I don't really understand why more horizontal bars make a difference if the spacing is 1/2" anyway.  I mean, they can't get there heads jammed in that small of a spacing.  I would think it would make it easier for them to get a leg caught or something if there were more horizontal bars to trap their legs.  Am I wrong?

I have been wanting to get a new chin cage.  I was wondering if a bird-type cage with 1/2" bar spacing, but more than an inch the other way was OK.  In other words, the bars are vertically 1/2" apart, but there are few bars running horizontally.
