Im curious to know how often everyone has to wash there pouchs. I been reading the little guys are not the cleanest of animals. Im assume they some times go to the washroom in there pouch or food gets all in it. If this is the case then I would imagin they would need to be washed daily? Which would then mean I would need quite a number of pouches...

Thanks.

I usually change the pouches every other day. You get sticky grape residue and yucky stuff from the males marking and the occasional accident. I have quite a few, but I managed with just 1 for a whole month when I had my first glider. I just made sure to throw it in the wash as soon as she woke up.

I have about 5 pouches. I usually rotate them every couple of days. I wear one for two days then throw it in the wash and get another one

I keep two in the cage at a time. I wash one and replace it and leave one in the cage that smells like them. I rotate these every 3-4 days. They don't really seem to get very dirty.

I usually wash a bonding pouch after 2 uses. I think it gets messier because I give her treats in the pouch.
