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

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...

I’m glad that worked …I used that idea when I looked after my brother’s ferrets - they were just like Saxon 😂

Prices for decent hutches are eye watering!

Yeah I don’t think she is showing any signs of bloat so far . I’ll probs go and put her back in her hutch shortly before the temp drops

She stays outside In a hutch and it’s not the first time she has been out on grass . She has been out on grass since after winter ok the warmer days

I currently have 2 boars that are 4 months old. 2 days ago we noticed Cowboy was limping and so off he went to the vets. It turns out he has been bitten by his supposed friend Walnut. We had never seen them showing any behaviour past a bit of a rumble here and there so was shocked it had...

...run is protected from all sides - pull down covers for example, something that could be removed so heat doesn’t get trapped When it comes to hutches, do keep in mind that hutches trap heat, even out of direct sun, heated breezes in what would not otherwise be considered too hot can raise the...

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...

1-2 weeks. Try to keep them above 15 for that time but 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...

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...

Thank you so much for all of this information. Will get to work on finding the new friend.

He's doing fantastic. I was a bit concerned about his scar so took him in on the Friday and they said it was just the end of the stitch and he was officially signed off. He's moved back to his hutch and we're just applying for all the girl guinea pigs we find in the hope one will be a match for...

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 😂

When cleaning out the hutch I just empty out all soiled bedding and hay and then give the trays a spray with pet safe disinfectant and then add new bedding . I do this once a week is this ok

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...

I really don’t want this to come across as negative - you are a wonderful owner and you are doing a great job, we all just want to help you - but from the rescue approving the accommodation point of view, I can see several issues with this. Unfortunately, I would steer anyone away from that...

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.

...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 half (splitting one means each half falls far below even minimum welfare...

is a 6ft hutch suitable for 3 guineapigs?
