There are five much calmer, happier females tonight. Betsie stayed in her mini-hutch all afternoon, so we put her supper-vegetables just on the threshold for her to eat. However, this evening, when I put in her new, very own, carrot cottage, pieces of dried carrot showered down and she came...

When do you put your cover on your hutch/start using it

I actually completely remove the dividing walls in the bedroom area of hutches so to stop this kind of thing. The bedroom section of the hutch is effectively a one door hide and you never want one door hides. One piggy can claim it as their own and stop the other from entering - which is what...

The standard treatment is three treatments two weeks between each. Just give the hutch a spray down with f10 and wipe as part of normal cleaning routine

Hi guys Merry passed last night. She became very lethargic and cuddled herself into the corner of their bedroom on the top floor of the hutch like the vet said would likely happen, and she barely moved for 2 days so we were offering food directly next to where she was and out a bowl of water...

...safe for me to order more xeno online and continue to use this, leaving 2 weeks in-between each treatment. I also have f10 to clean the whole hutch and any wooden items. Question, will the mites attach themselves to the hutch? I know they need to live on something, but if I am cleaning the...

...to be with him and they will unfortunately always need to remain separated. What I do need to point out is that unfortunately a two storey hutch won’t work for separated piggies. One being up and one being down means they lose all ability to interact and can then suffer from loneliness...

...Rider wash bags too, 28x28 inches approx. I used to fit my 5x3 c&c fleeces (6ft x 3ft6 approx) in it for washing. If I use fleeces in a c&c or hutch again, I would cut them down. - as you say, a big lined fleece is heavy and unbalances the machine. I had to have my bearings replaced once...

...in the garage. I was just about to put the clean stuff in the run when she came out of her hay tray, came up to the mesh at the front of the hutch and wheeked at me in her "I'm annoyed and you better do something about it" tone. I explained to her that I couldn't get her out of the hutch...

Good Afternoon I'm new to the group, this is my first post so please be kind! :-) We are the new owners of two lovely Teddy Guinea Pigs Coco and Cookie, they are very tame - eat healthy and have lots of toys and chews to play with. One problem - They keep chewing the wood on their house! Can...

looking for some new 'boredom buster' enrichment toys for my piggies.... does anyone recommend any brands or items? would prefer wooden as it goes more with the hutch but not really that picky with aesthetics. thanks

Before my late piggy Rebel was neutered, he used to stand on his back legs holding on to the bars of the ladies hutch and serenade them through the bars. I'll try and find a photo as it was his party trick. 😁

Hi, I know there are a few rescue owner/workers and I was wondering if you could let me know a bit more why most rescues dont rehome to hutches. I would love to rehome a pig that needed a home but I wouldn’t be able to, one reason because the closest rescue is over an 1:30 away and two because...

Maybe Misty had decided that Miss Bramble is old enough to be told about the birds and the bees and why boars have 🍒.

...all boys but fighting started so they have been kept apart now for a couple of months so it would of had babies already I was keeping them in a hutch separated with two in the bottom and the other in the top. Then i gave it to a friend whos had recently died. the two I now have are this...

Pap will already know what is happening so you don’t need to leave him in there for too long after

So sorry to hear this Angie. Odie had a great life with you and all his friends in "The Hutch". Which is in fact an amazing shed full of piggies and loveliness. To make the decision to help Odie over the Rainbow Bridge is the hardest but is also made with love meaning it is the correct one...

Right ok, so with any luck it was a one off accident. As I say, if you have to keep them outside in the hutch then I would take the additional measures I mentioned to secure it. It’s actually the plastic hutch part of the eglu that are considered unsuitable. They lack the necessarily...

Alright, will do! Thanks. :)

...Shavings and hay make a much better bedding for outdoor piggies. You also have to be prepared that they won’t be able to stay in the hutch in summer due to the heat. Hutches can very quickly become incredibly dangerous as soon as any warmth starts - even in the shade of a tree it can be a...
