Hiya, I'm looking to make a big cage. This cage will house 2 pigs. Would it be possible to connect two 160cm cages? Or are there any other alternatives?
 
Yes you can connect two 160cm cages. You will need to make some sort of bridge over the two bases of commercial cages though.
If you don’t other pets (cats/dogs), then a c&c can also be a good option (Although lids can be added to c&c cages). They are more versatile when it comes to shapes and sizing

Two sows or a neutered boar/one sow pair - a cage of 150x60cm is recommended; a 4x2 c&c
Two boars - a cage of 180x60cm is recommended; a 5x2 c&c

Whats the largest c&c you can get?
 
If you're talking about buying a complete kit, then on the candc Guinea Pig cages website, the biggest they sell is a 6x2.
However if you buy all the components yourself (grids and connectors, base etc) then the only thing you are limited by is the space you have available as you simply buy as many grids as you need. You can make it any shape or size you want and that is the beauty of c&c!
