I only saw pig ones when I went. The poor rabbits having an old chewed hut!

Ugh pet stores and rabbits do not mix :( They had 4 rabbits stuffed into a square pen that was smaller than a 2x4 CxC cage at my pet store. I was overjoyed that they had moved the skinny pig that they had in a tiny cage, alone, on the floor, by the door, in Canada (-14 degrees out that day) This is a major pet store too so people are in and out of the automatic doors constantly. All it had was a little pee soaked towel that they were using to line the bottom of the cage and a little hut. My mom asked where the pig was when she looked in and I showed her how the poor creature was huddled on a corner under the blanket :( they must have heard my mentioning to her that skinny pigs are REALLY susceptible to drafts as when I went back a couple of days later, the piggy had been moved into the same kind of cage as the rabbits but at least it was off the floor and away from the door.

I've seen them at crown point and more recently junction 27 retail park at birstall. They also had wooden hayracks too that may have come from the same place as they looked to be made out of the same material. The one at junction 27 is huge compared to crown point retail park.

I don't really like the one at Crown Point - you're right it's small and the staff generally don't seem to be quite so interested. Pontefract is bigger than Crown Point but I don't think it will be as big as the one near IKEA. I haven't ever been in there but it has a Vets for Pets in it I think?

Am liking the sound of this hay tray though so will try and get to one and have a look. Does the hay rack look anything like this one or is it more a manger type rack? http://m.zooplus.co.uk/shop/small_pets/accessories/hay_racks/83037

No they don't look like that but I have one of those hay racks in the link. They are a manger shape with slots cut out of the side and a sitting platform or lid on top

Your right about that pets at home also has a vets inside.
 
Yeh I can't say they're fantastic but never the less I'll try for us all!
 
It's all good I've got 2 pets at home stores near me, I'll bug both if them until I get an answer. Someone must have ordered them in so someone somewhere knows!
 
I saw a piggie inside of the crate at PaH, he was fine but unable to get out again. I also get hay racks online, eBay or Amazon which are bigger and more sturdy. Also, cardboard toilet tubes are good hay feeders!
 
You could use a cardboard box from amazon, and cut out the gaps like the real wooden one.
Then there it would be much safer.
 
I saw these in the pets at home nearest me too. I'm almost certain I also seen them online too but can't remember where. I'll have a think!

If you so desperately need the box, why don't you ask a member of staff at pah?

I did. It was like talking to a plank of wood. All I got was I don't think we sell them. I thought it might be fun for the boys for floor time.
 
Yes my PAH are using the box crates type as well. They kind of look like apple crates but a lot smaller. Every time I have gone in there there is a cheeky piggy in the top of them. Lol.
