ASF's making a huge mess!

[zoologist]

Does anyone else have problems with their ASF's pushing the bedding out of their tub? I'm just trying to figure out if I'm doing something wrong. I never have this problem with my regular rats.

How deep do you put the bedding?

I would also look into getting the bedding in a little larger chunks. I am not a fan of that finely shredded stuff. The stuff I get from Tractor Supply, works great for me. I think they only have one brand of aspen bedding there, and it comes in 2 different package sizes.

ive never had or heard of the problem your having. Maybe try using less bedding?
I do have the same issue in the second pic, if my dogs are in the same room as the rack they are right up next to it watching them lol

I'm going to try using less bedding for the ASF's. If that doesn't work, then I'll switch bedding. Thanks guys.

well my rats, asfs and normal ones, like to push their aspen all over the place. i had the same issue and just had to use less. no more mess.

I recall another post about this a good long while ago, it does happen to people other than yourself.

I'd try the suggestions already posted
