Indeed they can, Sylvie! You'd be surprised how small a space into which you can be squeezed when you have no bones are hard structures in your body...

Thanks for answering me Kelly. It is so hard to believe... But because you tell me and because I know you know what you're talking about, I believe you.

Thanks, Sylvie

Hi Kelly,

I am trying your window screen method (ie, add the screen and new bedding on top). The bin was happily working along until I did this, but now I am having 4 or 5 escapees every day. The old bedding is still underneath, so I am not sure what is driving them out? Lack of oxygen (lots of holes), too dry (I'm keeping an eye on it), general pickiness?

Any comments welcome.
