Safe Material Question - 06/17/16 02:08 AM
My boy Delta is still cooped up in his tiny PocketPets cage. While trying to save up enough to get him a nice big cage, I was researching all the while & GliderCentral to the rescue yet again! I found a great design to build a cage for much less!
Getting all the materials was a breeze until I got to the nuts, bolts, & washers. I reached up & saw "zinc."
All I know is in my masses of glider research, I know I saw ”something something zinc poisoning something."
Just to be safe I looked around some more & found all the materials in galvanized steel instead. Just got home & realized that maybe I should ask. Is galvanized steel okay?
Also, the hook & eye latches only came in zinc & brass. Is brass okay?
