Hi there,

Welcome to the wonderful world of C&C cages :) If your anything like me you'll change the design 100 times and still never be satisfied by your piggie mansion (it's amazing just many more idea's you have once you've completed it).

I got my grids from here:

http://www.kreshay.com/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=178&category_id=34&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=1

When i got mine they were £14.85 per pack - but now they are only £13.99 per pack. As i remember i paid £6.95 for next day shipping for 3 packs

The second lot of correx i bought was from here:

http://www.teacratepackaging.co.uk/correx-board-p-88.html

If you type the word guinea into the code section when ordering you get a further 10% off. The correx from the site above is only 2mm thick, so i ordered double the amount and stuck two sheets together to make 4mm sheets.

Hope this helps :)

Remember to post some pics when you've built your piggie palace (i just love looking at other people's creations).
 
thanks thats a bit cheaper than ebay i know they selling it for 4mms thick sooo ill order the grids now and get the correx last to male sure i get the correct amount :D
 
Hi zoe6660

Personally if i were you, i'd get the 4mm correx just to make life easier. I bought from the website link i provided before i knew they even sold it on ebay. The link i provided for the grids is by far the cheapest ive seen online - however i have seen people on this forum make mention of a place called costco - if you know someone with a membership card they do them for around £10 per box

In terms of how much correx you'd need - i'm sure some of the more experienced C&C users could estimate how much you'd need - what size are you going for?

Ive currently got a 4.5 grid x 3 grid lower and 3 x 2 grid L shaped upper. However because ive just recently found out my boar is now a very pregnant sow i will be re-building my C&C to include a 4.5 x 3 grid lower, 4.5 x 3 grid second level with a 2 x 3 grid third level (well that's the plan). This will house my neutered boar and sow (once she's had her litter) in the bottom section (may do a second level) the my bonded pair of boars will have the second and third levels.

You'll have great fun building your C&C - if i can do it anyone can!.
 
I'm not sure how its going to be its going to full my spare room soo i ordered 80 if i need more ill get more and see how it goes if i need help ill post lol thanks again i will order the correx off ebay.
