We have been trying to get our girls out in the hall lately to give them chane for a run around, as its so cold outside, here are a few pics how we got on:

Dorothy seem to like chasing Ruby around or staying very close to her.
They seem to spend more time in the igloo than exploring, but i guess they need time to get used to whats going on?
 
x) x) Awwww, your girls are beautiful! Don't worry about them spending time in pigloo, piggies like to have somewhere to go and sit/hide in.

You could try to make some tunnels out of shoeboxes etc... so they will run from one to the other this will encourage them to move around more at floortime. Don't worry, the more runtime they have the more used to it they will be.

Welcome to the forum, hope to see more pictures of Dorothy and Ruby in the future!
 
Aww, they are super sweet! I'm sure the more you get them out the more confident they will become :)
 
awww super cute! mine are still shy after 4 months! they take a bit of time to win round but it's so worth it in the end :)
 
Lovely pics! What cute piggies you have ;-)

This one in particular is adorable

I have learned on the forum about paper bags. I put one on the floor with Red when I let him run around in the bathroom, and he gets lots of exercise going in and out, seeing if anything has changed from one time to the next
 
The little pkastic childrens stools are great for spreading around the floor so the piggies can go from one to another. They also make a good tunnel if you put them side by side,and they are easy to stack when not in use. Some piggies like to sit on top of them.
