hi my female should be laying any day now, i read that they should have privacy during this time, would it be ok to lay a sheet across her catch to have her feel more comfortable... Thanks
Yes, I have read of some people putting a small blanket or sheet over their cages so that they get more privacy. I would go ahead and do that so that she isn't disturbed by anyone coming into the room or passing by.
It will be very beneficial for her to have a sheet over her cage, that way she won't be distracted and stressed out when people pass her cage or are in the same room.
What i do is get some colorful wrapping paper or wallpaper, cut it out to fit the sides of you cage, then tape it on. It will give her a more secure feeling instead of a white sheet to look at and you can easily open the cage if needed. I use camo colors mostly, but one of my females liked nascar so i got her some jimmie johnson wrapping paper to look at while laying. This also makes great dividers between cages.
