I think the new arrivals are here to stay! I've just gone out in the garden, Bart and Angel are cuddled up next to one another in the pet carrier and Lola is jumping up and down and crawling over them like one big happy family. Just a new large hutch to get for the piggies and a hutch mate for Betty and I'm happy.
The spare hutch that you can see covered over in some of the photos is too small for piggies to live in, so I had an idea, I put the hutch in the pen:
I removed the floor in the daytime compartment and covered it with a carpet tile. I also removed the floor from the covered compartment and carpeted that as well before replacing and turned the daytime floor into a ramp. I now have a perfect piggy bolt hole, it saves the pet carrier and of an evening, I remove both flooring sections and hose them down and leave them to dry overnight so they have a nice clean bolt hole everyday. Here is Bart and Lola trying it out.
At the moment, Lola and Angel are living indoors in a large cage, whilst their new home is being prepared. It just needs the top, back and sides covered in heavy duty felt and the exposed wood waterproofed and stained with pet friendly woodstain and it will ready for them to move into.
Once my shed is up, all of my hutches will be moved into it for a cozy winter.
