    Safe glue??

    Need to make some minor repairs to his cage. Does it matter what kind of glue I use as long as I give it time to dry out and let the fumes disperse?

    I've read of people using wood glue, superglue and even hot glue (whatever THAT is!)

    Thanks

    What type of cage is it? Is it a Glass Tank? If so you could use Aqurium Sealent/Epoxy

    After you use it youll have to let everything air out good and after it dries wash the inside of the tank out real good. If you dont wanna use that you could use (Hot Glue) to i would think or (Gorilla Glue) just of course let the tank air out and wash it after

    the type of glue depends on the type of cage you are repairing. when i broke a section out of my glass cage i used silicon to glue in a new piece. just as long as you let it dry completely and there is no way they can ingest it or become sticky you should be fine.....
