    My two boars had a fight

    Hi Merab! I think I'm going to keep them within a 2x6 C and C for now, separated in the middle. We have an elderly hamster in the same room at the moment so we can't extend, but in the future I will be upgrading to two 2×4s which are next to one another for interaction. I know no blood was...

    Dull dry fur

    Welcome to the forum Poor piggies. They will improve now they are getting good care Have they been checked by a vet? Don’t bathe before seeing a vet. Bathing or using any products can hide physical markers a vet needs to make a diagnosis of a problem so only bathe after the vet has seen them...

    Cage Expansion / L-shape / Lofts (advice wanted)

    I use dog lead clips to hold my opening areas of my c and c cage closed. They are so easy to undo. I use reusable velcro cable ties as the hinges.

    Stacked C&C Cage Help Needed

    ...unless I am able to do a stacked version but ive read so many horror stories about them bowing and collapsing on pigs! So I'm wondering how bad stacked cages really are? If I cant do a stacked c&c then they will have to have their own room! While this sounds fun I dont know how they will cope!

    4 boars fighting

    Yes, the C&C cages are so flexible they lend themselves to convenient stacking. The piggies with the divided cages could be at the bottom and the pair at the top. You would be able to keep all of your piggies in the sand footprint as the original cage 👍❤️

    4 boars fighting

    ...have occurred, they will need to be separated permanently. Unfortunately you cannot ever rebond any boars who have fought. A pair need a 5x2 c&c Each single needs a a 3x2 c&c as a minimum but a 4x2 is recommended. As long as the two singles remain next to each other, then c&c cages can be...

    First C&C Cage

    Have finally made my first C&C cage. It’s a 4x2 with double stand. So far the girls are very nervous but think they’ll love it. I’ve put a photo of their previous cage for reference.

    Old boar losing weight

    The key is whether there is any underlying health issue or whether it is age related. Were his teeth checked etc? Any chance he has arthritis and whether pain from that is causing a reduction in appetite? Making sure he has lots of hay and supplementing with critical care is really all you...

    Guinea Pig Pellets

    I provide a 6x2 C&C cage for my two piggies who live indoors. I don’t know what the set requirements are for a rescue but it’s to ensure the best quality of life for the guinea pigs they help re-home.

    It’s getting hot! Are you ready? 🥵

    My sister had 39 C, living and working just outside Basel in Switzerland. I was still in Switzerland when they hit 38.4 C in the 80ies and it was just HOT, so I totally feel for you. :(

    At a lost end with burrowing

    I ended up ordering a custom made one (2of them) from c and c cosies. Brilliant and uses that zorb material. It’s much thinner and wicks brilliantly. I have it pinned on top of the correx now. I will see how much it shrinks, but I tried catering for that when I sent measurements :)
