Drip Tray

[txg8gxp]

What are you guys using for drip trays for 2x2' cages? I could have a custom acrylic one made local but I would like to find a lower cost option. Is there any common rubbermaid/etc containers that would fit? Thanks for the help

I went to my local grocery store and got a large deli tray and top. It fits fairly well and costs me $4. I put the top upside down on the black tray for stability so I can slide it in and out and it works for me. I still put paper towels around the edges in case I get water down there, but they stay pretty dry.

We got a custom made one with a hole drilled in the corner. Didn't cost a penny as my brother works at the composites place and made it in his spare time.

I've heard of people buying some kind of trays that are meant for rabbits though! '

I use a washing machine over flow tray from lowes. Its like 27/30 and very thick. It was $20.

So I picked this washing machine overflow pan for home depot today for $20, It is alittle larger then my 2x2x4 cage but I kind of like that it has about 2.5-3" extra around all 4 sides of the cage, nothing wrong with alittle overhang to catch water that might run down the outside of the cage or something.
