you shouldnt have a problem switching over to norway's. as long as they have the 1/2 hardware wire to eat through like you said you have they should be fine.

hope this helps!
1/2 inch mesh is to big...the weaners will be able to squeeze through it...1/4inch is big enough for them to eat, and small enough to keep all in the tub.
