Hope this is not a silly question ?/

I was reading about ink on paper and how it's not to be used - I know newspaper is ok and use lots - but was wondering about cardboard boxes, I have currently got just 'brown' boxes with no print on for putting hay in, tunnels, Beds etc. but we had a party at the weekend and have lot's of budweiser boxes that would make fab tunnels :)):)) I assume using these with print on are ok?
 
Pretty sure they'd be fine. I've made stuff out of old shoeboxes and the like before, and I do remember someone posting pictures of their set up with beer can box tunnels in their cage, but I can't remember who it was.
 
Cardboard boxes/ shoe boxes/ toilet roll &kitchen roll inner tubes are all fine, some boxes that have shiny ink print covering can be dangerous I think, its best to avoid them. I'v used the mini cheddar and Hula Hoops card tubes, just remove the plastic and metal ends. The piggies love them and they make great tunnelsx)x)

My 2's cage has sometimes looked like they have had a house party with all the beer boxes I give them! :(|)

They were ok with it. :)
