Hi, I've been looking at guinea pig runs for a long time for all of the Piggies to go outside on the grass to graze hopefully in April! This run seems ideal but my only query is I'm not sure If it's a bit too small for 7 guinea pigs as currently the guinea pigs have double the space in their guinea pig room. The run is ideal because it folds away and wooden and is also just under £100. It's 235cm x 120cm (just over 30 square feet - they currently have just over 50 square feet) would this be appropriate for 7 guinea pigs or would it be worth investing in a larger run? All of the larger runs I've looked at however do not fold away and would be over 3 X the price just for a slight increase in space. Screenshot_20210310-213057~2.webp
Many thanks 😊
 
You could get a second and connect them using a tube. There’s a company that does them but can’t remember the name for the life of me!
 
Buy 2 and remove the doors and position them side by side on the lawn.
We have done this with our rabbit enclosures and joined them using cable ties, so if necessary we can separate them to move etc.
The runaround tunnels are great but require specific fixings to be secure and could be a flash point if 2 piggies meet head to head.

Thank you. That's a good idea. So I could just buy 2 of the runs pictured aslong as I remove the small door pictured and push together. Good idea! :)
