    Someone needs to adopt these boys before i do!

    I didn't have room for Misty and Bramble when they refused bond with Thea. So they lived on a table in a cage in my garage near the hutch. It was really awkward as the table/cage arrangement took up lots of room and needed moving every time I had to get Thea out of the hutch. After about a...

    Yes they will be fine just with the hutch Yes the floor coverings will also be fine. As I say, the correx I have used in the cage was used for the work in my house

    Advice on moving forward

    ...behaviour past a bit of a rumble here and there so was shocked it had progressed to this with no warning. They were living outdoors in a 6ft hutch from pets at home with 3 hides and 2 of everything else but clearly it wasn't enough and they just can't be friends. They are currently separated...

    Walk in run

    ...to move into the house during the day, lawn time for an hour or so in the evening and then back into the shed overnight. Yes you can put a hutch inside it (a 5ft hutch for girls, 6ft for boys). The run part would most likely only be useful when it is dry though. They can only have access to...

    What do you mean by a base of a cage? Do you mean you have an indoor cage as well as tango’s hutch? If so, Does tango go into the cage? Bonding has to be done somewhere that is secure but also that is somewhere tango does not view as her territory. If tango lives in the hutch and in the...

    DIY thermal hutch hugger

    You may not need to insulate the hutch at all as you are heating the shed and the shed is insulated - it may well all just be warm enough anyway I have made my own (I have also bought some). I used silver foil insulation and taped it together with proper foil tape. It needs to cover the...

    oil radiator help!

    ...please do not worry if it does go to 13/14 - they are not suddenly going to get ill because of it - provided they have somewhere warm in the hutch to snuggle into. Being in the shed and out of wind is making a huge difference to them. (Being in a hutch outside, exposed to wind and damp as...

    Guinea Pig Pellets

    Hi just a question I went out to tangos hutch and found her lying flat but still breathing does that mean she was probably just very relaxed as she got up and is fine . She had me quite worried 😂

    Guinea Pig Pellets

    ...approving the accommodation point of view, I can see several issues with this. Unfortunately, I would steer anyone away from that that type of hutch: the two main issues are that it isn’t big enough and it isn’t predator proof (the bar spacing is far too big to keep them safe inside - rats...

    New hutch for guinea pigs

    Welcome to the forum Some piggies will use a ramp, some never will. Personally I always go for single level hutches and a separate run. So a single level chartwell (6ft, particularly if you have two boys) and any separate run you like. I tend to use the home & roost website. I...

    Advice on improving GPs life

    ...to be separated then each piggy needs at least a 3x2 (so a 6x2 split in half but ideally an 8x2 split in half so they can each have a 4x2). A hutch for a boar pair needs to be 6ft x 2ft (single level, two storey hutches so not double living space) but unfortunately a hutch cant be split in...

    Guinea Pig Pellets

    I know you wrote you don't really have space for a 5ft hutch, but I would suggest that you rearrange somehow and make space! It is for the good of your guineas. Been there btw, had to make more space.

    Outdoor housing

    Hello! I’m looking for advice on outdoor hutches for my piggies. I have two boars whose bond broke a while ago now, and are living completely separate. I’m thinking of moving them outside due to limited space indoors to accommodate two cages. I would need an outdoor hutch suitable for one...

    Indoor enclosure advice

    ...to the forum A cage of this size is absolutely perfect. 60cm width is the standard width (and recommendation) for commercial cages and hutches - the recommended enclosure size for two sows being 150x60cm. It’s just that c&c cages happen to be wider but it doesn’t make the standard 60cm...
