Top layer This ground cover is also very suitable as a top layer . This layer can be spread on top of an existing ground cover and thus serve the function of foraging or play layer . |
The Egg & Cardboard (formerly Joris No Smell Card N Colours) is a ground cover consisting of different colored egg cartons. A special feature of egg cartons is that they are very soft and therefore pleasant for the paws. Egg cartons have an open paper structure so they absorb moisture very quickly.
This ground cover can be used as a ground cover in itself, but can also be used as a second (play) layer. This can be a lot of fun, especially for larger rodents, and promote foraging behavior. We therefore recommend occasionally sprinkling some treats through the play layer to encourage the animals to search.
✔ Gentle on the paws
✔ Suitable for long-haired animals
✔ Ideal as a play layer or foraging layer
✔ Dust-free and good absorption
A second layer consisting of the Egg & Cardboard can also be very nice for small rodents. Small rodents such as mice, hamsters and gerbils are great at digging through this layer. Scattering some goodies around is also an exciting challenge for them to go on a quest.
Did you know?
The egg carton pieces can contribute to a cleaner Rat's coat? The soiled coat rubs against the egg cases, which absorb the moisture and thus clean the coat.
Thanks to the strong absorption of the Egg & Cardboard, puddles are sucked up very quickly. It is best to replace the wet pee corners regularly for the best and most efficient use.
For small rodents as a top layer (Mouse, Dwarf Hamster, Hamster, Gerbil)
Fill the enclosure with the standard ground cover and apply a layer of Egg & Cardboard of 5 to 10 cm on top. If necessary, sprinkle some treats through the layer and let the animals show their natural behavior by looking for their food (foraging).
For larger rodents as a top layer (Rat, Guinea pig, Rabbit, Chinchilla, Degu)
Fill the enclosure with the standard ground cover and apply a layer of Egg & Cardboard of 10 to 20 cm on top (depending on the animal). If necessary, sprinkle some treats through the layer and let the animals show their natural behavior by looking for their food (foraging).
For use as a ground cover for rodents and rabbits
Fill the enclosure until the bottom is completely covered with Egg & Cardboard. A layer of 10 to 15 cm is sufficient, provided the bottom is completely covered.

voor mij niet meer oogt slordig
prijs kwaliteit is okay. grote verpakking dat is ook handig als je een groot hok hebt. het is lekker zacht en het hok ziet er lang fris uit.
Ik gebruik het graag. Het is goedkoper dan Carefresh. Wel zijn het nogal grote stukken, zouden wel wat fijner gemaakt mogen worden.
Apart geurtje. Voor de rest lijkt het op Carefresh maar groffer. Prima maar ik verkies toch Carefresh.
Ik vind het best een goede bodembedekker: het lijkt op Carefresh, maar dan veel groffer. Ik gebruik het als bodemlaag en daarbovenop gooi ik een dikke Carefresh om tunnels in te maken. Dat scheelt toch behoorlijk in de kosten, aangezien het de helft van de prijs van Carefresh bedraagt. Een nadeel vind ik de geur, maar dat ruik je alleen als je je neus in de kooi steekt. Nu er Carefresh bovenop zit, ruik ik het eerlijk gezegd amper. Het absorbeert wel goed. Ik gebruik het nu pas een aantal weken, maar tot nu toe vind ik het dus wel een goede bodembedekking t.o.v. de meeste anderen.
