Wow its is big and i big OMG at the price! But it does say they have to order it from Italy, so i expect until it becomes widely available in the UK the price will be high. Like you said good to know if you cant have a c&c cage. :)
 
would that be big enough for a trio? I'm trying to convince my OH that piggies are indoor critters all year round
my trio is boar and 2 sows
 
That would be fine for three providing they are getting floor time regularly.
 
If you can have a cage that big you can have a c and c cage my 2x4 is only 4.66 ft and one level would be about £40.00
 
We have a dog and even though you can build a lid for a c & c he would get through it as he is a large breed so we have to have something alot stronger than a c& c otherwise I would have gone for one as they are cheaper

Dave and Joben have this cage and are rattling around in it!:

It turned up in two days (ordered on a Sunday too!). For the sake of 6cm length and 2.5cm width, I'd say 100 quid is a bit steep!:)

Ahhh I see, your right c and c's are not rigid i have to watch my mate's 2yr old near the cage he trie's to climb in!
 
es that's the cage on zoo plus I was going to get but they are not getting a delivery until December


Going to buy the one I have seen for £114 same size so my two boars have more room as they are in a 2 x 4ft atm and they are big boys so I think ned more space

Only just seen that you can now get a 160cm indoor cage. That's huge for a commercial cage. I expect the price will still put a lot of people off but it's good to know that they're out there. :)

Although I see it's only 156cm in length. Still a good size though.

When I was trying to source my Trixie Rabbit 150 cages, I spoke to a lot of different online stores. Whilst I was chatting to a man at one of them, he mentioned that this cage was coming on to the market and that they had ordered one to have a look at it. He told me that the quality was really poor, it was no where near as good as the Trixies (I have to agree, purely going on the quality of smaller Ferplast against the Trixie ones) and wasn't overly solid (bars were easily bent if lent on etc) and he said they weren't going to bother ordering any because they didn't believe anyone would spend that amount of money on them.

I personally would chose Trixie over Ferplast any day.
 
I've seen that cage IRL and it's HUGE -in a bad way. It completely dominates the room, and at 15 kg not really something you can move around easily for cleaning. The bottom tray is also so high that a pig couldn't look out even when standing on their hind legs.

If you need something really sturdy, go to a welder with an idea and ask for a quote. I bet you he will make something great looking and more suitable for half that price. It's what I'm planning to do next cage build!
