You need to find pigloos suitable for 16 piggies?

One need for pigloos + one genius dad = dustbin pigloos!

And, the lid comes in pretty handy too!

The pic is a little blurry but I think it was a moment of genius from my dad. We've tried washing up bowls for our pairs and they worked out fab - £1.50 for a two pig 'pigloo' as opposed to around £7 for one from the pet shop! In comparison, these pig sty pigloos worked out at £3.25 each and will easily fit all 16 in one if they decide to all cram in together.

I think I'm going to get some fleece and tack it round the openings somehow so they can snooze in peace, but for now I think they're great. Rather tempted to get another bin and put two more 'sty' huts in with them!

Here's Izzy showing everyone how to do bin-lid-dining in style:

And another shed shot for good measure. I also lined the sides with correx - I think it looks much better than the wood we had before...

:D
 
Aww bless. They're all adorable and that was one clever idea indeed!
 
Hehe, what a fab idea! I bet they love their new dens! Who's the piggy standing on top of the fiddle sticks?! :))
 
I didn't even have to check the picture to see - Muffin! She's the only piggy that'll sit up on them... Bless her! :))

:)) she looks like a fun piggy! I was chopping veggies the other day when I turned around and Dottie was stood on top of her tunnel that I made with C&C grids wheeking full blast - ears flapping! She did make me laugh :))
 
Genius idea! Always love seeing photo's of your herd!
 
I love that idea, I think I may steal it for bunny hidey holes as my two cant get enough places to play. I would love to have a setup like that, I just need a bigger garden/garage!
