it looks boring at the moment as i didnt realise i had space to have it that big.
xx it looks small in the photo but its actually huge xx
 
fantastic - can i make a suggestion? the top black holders, do them so the round is facing downwards - they will be more secure then (unless making a second level) - you can really push them down then.

Are you going to pu their hammocks in? what you going to use for the base? I have my fleecing and profleece.

are you using correx or lino for the base?

heres mine

no probs, i know what its like getting your head round it when putting it together! lol oi cant see from the piccies, do you have them on the bottom too? do that the same (like on my piccies) and it will be really stable then!

cant wait to see their hammocks in there! cuties!

Did you get my other parcel safely a couple of weeks ago?

Yeah i Pm'd you as soon as it arrived. did you not get the message? Ive added them to the bottom now aswel. dont know how it stayed up before lol. ill put there hammock in tomorrow. Just hope they dont use it to jump out :)
 
If you have a spare grid, put that over the hammock (flat ways, like a ceiling) then they cant jump out-thats what I have done. I also drape colourful fleece on the grid to give them some privacy :))
 
It looks great Chez...! and massive! they are a lucky pair...you say you will only have one level - but it gets addictive and before you know it you are trying out soooo many different things...hehe

lol, i cant remember - my memory is terrible at the moment!i probably did get it!

cool, glad that sorted your cage out! the piggies are quite good, mine have never jumped out, they just jump up onto the sofas instead! crazy pigs!
 
mine is all on one level with lino as the base cos i couldnt get hold of correx but i have been thinking about changing it around and adding a second level! Not sure i can handle the stress of puttin it back together again! i had to use grids on the base (obviously i covered them up!) cos the cage is bigger than the table its on and i very nearly threw the whole thing out at one point trying to get it together!
 
Huuuuge cage, I'll bet they popcorned! One grid is over a foot square, so Bodie and Doyle's cage is a fantastic size. :)
