I currently have my pigs in commercial homes from the pet shop. I have 3 boars who live side by side as neighbours. I would love to build a c&c home for them with a grid seperating my old boar who likes his own space and the young boars who I think will get along ok eventually living together. I have a 7 foot by 4 foot space to do the c&c home in but have absolutely no idea of the cost. If anyone could post pics of their c&c setup and the appox cost of it, it would be great!
Thanks :))
 
Hi my C&C cage used approx 2 boxes of grids from B&Q which cost £48.00. Hubby then decided he wanted to use perspex as the lining which probably cost about another £50.00 ( I know a lot of people on the forum use correx)

go to focus if you can (dont know 100% if they sell it) but focus is going down the pan and got a sale on :)

Yep we just used the wooded logs that they sell at pets at home (the ones you make hidey holes out of) We turned it into a ramp and reinforced the back of it. They love it cause it helps keep thier claws short as they run up and down on it and they also chew at the wood on it so its also great for thier teeth xx
 
I don't have piggies (yet) but one box from B&Q is £22.98 which has 23 grids and 26 connecters in the UK. Hope this helped! I'm not sure about correx though.
 
My grids were £23 from B&Q and then I bought 2 large sheets of correx of the net which cost £15 including delivery.

This is a 3x4 with a 1x3 hayloft for 2 boys. The hayloft now has 2 extra grids at the side just in case either of them decided to jump it lol.
