if the smell isn't offensive to us that doesn't mean it is good for the young to breath ,espically in the "pee corners".

my polycarb cages have about the same footprint as a 10 gal. tank,which house 1.4 - 1.3 groups,i'm changeing the bedding every 6-9 days.

any thoughts?
I don't change more often then 14 days. In fact I try to go as close to 3 weeks as possible. A perfectly clean cage looks better to us / but try comparing a clean cage to a natural rat infested enviroment!
