Is it okay to just have the grate on the bottom of the cage or does paper go over it or in the tray below it?
Answer:
Hi Kath,
You would probably want to put a lining in the tray below the grate for easy cleaning (the grate keeps your bird from climbing down and getting into the poop). I recommend newspaper for lining – it is safe for birds, cheap, and easy to clean up. 🙂
God bless,
