I know theres been a few threads on this lately but thought I'd start my own to be 100% sure..
Do you think it's time to bring my little darlings inside now for the winter ?
Only had my piggies for a few months so its still new to me.
 
Yes, it would be wise to bring them in now as the nights are getting chilly.

Gps are best kept indoors anyway and you will find you get to know them more if they are with you in the house.

Their character comes out more if they are indoors with you, because they become less afraid of your presence.
 
Another advantage of keeping the piggies indoors is that you will be more observant of them and will pick up any change of behavior that could indicate a health problem.
 
My piggies are kept in the garage all year round apart from if its nice outside then they are out on the grass.

When its chilly my piggies have a sleeping bag draped over their hutch. in the morning i check where they are and they are so warm even when its zero outside.

I only bring mine in if its below zero but in the garage but it never gets like that. I have a temperature gauge in the garage and the temperature shows up on my bedroom clock in my house.

Thanks for your replys I'll go and get their indoor cage ready for them to come inside..
 
I've got one of those nero 4 cages but want to extend it, do you think I could use those c&c grids to make a run for them ?
