    Don't know if the size you need is in there, but they have 3'x2' sheets, which is the exact size of my JCP cage... can't wait to get it.

    If you get sheets, www.uline.com is a lot more expensive... that's more than $50 for 200 sheet of 3'x2'.

    I got it for less than $50 shipped from www.restockit.com, and shipping took up more than half of that.

    24" X 360' (Roll) for $26 plus shipping, not bad if you ask me.

    I can't see buying sheets either...next time I will be more specific...I was referring to the rolls.

    Otherwise I might have to switch to news paper or a different paper substrate.

    What paper substrate is the best? I once heard of indented craft paper...anybody know that stuff?

    Thanks,
    you should get coconut fiber it absorbs the humidity as well as piss

    Been there, done that. My carpet moves it around too much, the stuff is too light.

    what i do soon as they poop and if i bearly changed the bedding i just clean out the poop and the bedding around it and then just fill it back up but like i said in my other comment use "coconut-fiber" it really holds humidity so u wont have to be spraying every 5 seconds and it also holds urate(pee)
