So it took months but Buddy finally chewed thru his mac-n-chez box. It was homemade & I inverted it because I feared it would be wayyyyy to scary the other way. I didn't have any crinkle paper @ the time so I made it from colored scrapbook paper.
Well, I got some after that but it took him so long that I'd almost forgot I bought it & made it again! Good thing I remembered. So here are pics. He got excited @ the end & began doing his weird swaying he only seems to do when I'm above him. We call it a happy dance but I'm not sure that's what it is... Pls excuse the mess I was in the process of cleaning. Sorry the pics are blurry but he was moving so it blurred them where his face & eyes are.
So, I took everyones advise awhile bach & I zip tie an old bell in there. Useless for in the cage but works great in the box just to encourage the pulling & chewing. Then I zip tie the outside part to the handle on this sterilite craft container that's actually 2 containers in 1 (for storage & height). The lid has paper tape on it to make it safe (r) for Buddy to walk on.
Thanks for the ideas of what to stick in it. I really think the bell was the key ingredient for him & some thing I would of never considered if ya'll hadn't helped persuade me to see the light.
