unfortunatly that size is only just suitable for the two...
thing is whilst there small it may look like they have lodes of room but you have to remember that they will like tripple in size over the next year... :)
and trust me if they dont have alot of room they will fight and squabble....
:)
but.... you could always get a bigger cage... ;)

recommended minimum cage size for 2 pigs is 4ft x 2ft (120cm x 60cm) - preferably you'd want to provide bigger than this if you could. I currently have my boys in a 5ft x 2.5ft cage

Minimum cage size for three (i presume they are girls) would be 5ft x 2ft (150cm x 60cm)
 
true but i bet you love it! they give so much back haha however compared to the amount they take! haha i just cant get this poor little guinea out of my head he looked all skinny and sad :( i so wanna take him.
