...natural climbers - they can learn how to use a ramp but it can also be found that older piggies stop wanting to use them even if they used them in their younger years). Hopefully they will enjoy having the freedom to choose to come out! Let us know how things go! Ramps in Cages and Hutches

Lol perhaps I should change my username,I haven't used my GPTV since the girls moved indoors, they had their own CCTV channel in the hutch in the shed .

As long as they aren’t loose on the shed floor then it would be ok as a temporary measure (Outside hutches are protected somewhat as the mesh on hutches should be strong rodent proof mesh) Have you ordered everything you need then? It’s recommended to Use U nails to attach the wire to the...

I would be using the hutch for the guinea pigs, facing away from the run and with the ramp closed and the run for the rabbits with an old chartwell hutch inside it. It is only for the times when the shed and sunroom are too blazing hot for them. I would be around most of the time to keep an eye...

If it dosent work first time I’ll keep them in seperate hutches and then try again after a few days does that sound like a plan

I hope you have a wonderful holiday ❤️

Have found a bit of wood that I could try to see if I can get it in the door quick enough to stop him trying to lean out so far. I wouldn't leave it in the hutch though as I don't know what it's been treated with and they would probably chew it.

Two sows together need a hutch which measures 150x60cm (a 5 foot hutch). Being double storey does not double the space - only the bottom level counts as living space as piggies are ground roaming creatures who are not natural climbers (meaning they prefer single level living). Double storey...

How can I let tango sniff the other guinea pig if I only have one cage and she is in one of the hutches I have

...doesn’t really matter. Remember climbing is not natural to guinea pigs and they prefer their living to be single storey (so double storey hutches are not ideal for guinea pigs). Also keep in mind that a double storey hutch does not give more room - upper levels do not count towards the cage...

...like it/won't use the 2 tiers, is there any harm in closing up the hole at the top, removing the ramp and creating efftivly 2x single story hutches and putting out 2x female piggies on the bottom and the boys up top? Currently the girls are in a seperate hutch. I really appreciate the...

hmm ill see what i can do! i may not be able to give them access straight away to the run until iv fixed these bits but they should be okay in the hutch without until its all sorted shouldn’t they? also my dad can get me some more floor coverings however they will have been used / dusty, would...

After you've hoovered them up, you could also spray the area with F10 which kills off most things. You may need to do this for a few weeks to get rid of the egg cycle. It took me about 8 weeks of hoovering the hutch and liberally spraying it with F10 on a weekly basis to get rid of an earwig...

A sheet of plastic, correx, I have old oilcloth table cloths - anything that is non absorbent I put bricks under the hutch to stop them from getting underneath (but we had loads of bricks kicking about). An alternative could be to staple mesh between the legs of the hutch (would probably need...

It does look great ! Lucky girls Will the pen attach to the sides of the hutch ? Just thinking about the electrical wires there or are they temporary ?

We found a lovely cool bit if patio this afternoon in the garden. She was running about eating and looking nice and cool. I draped a damp sheet over part of her run. Not sure if it helped but she seemed happy. Bought a thermometer for her hutch too

Are you coming my way? Swindon. I have a double storey wooden hutch in my garage. I know it’s not ideal though.

We recently got two guinea pigs. We have a large hutch and run for them. In the bed area we line with paper, thick layer of shavings and then filled with hay. All fine. In the open area I initially also lined with paper and sawdust but oh my god the mess! they practically ended up with all the...

My piggies live in my garage a Chartwell Double Hutch left over from when I had 2 herds of piggies and 3 lived in the Penthouse and 2 lived in the Granny Annexe underneath. Now I only have 1 herd of 3 piggies they all live in the Penthouse and the Granny Annexe is used for storage of all things...

Wow! I'd not thought of that! I'll keep the Conservatory door closed now and the window in the garage. Thanks for the warning. I live near a Heath and there are foxes in my garden day and night. My piggies are kept in the garage. They are safely locked in a hutch at night and are in an...
