3 x 7 C&C set up advice please

[lu_lu]

Does any have a 3x? C&C set up? how easy/hard are they to clean? previously i've always had 2x 6/8/9 grid cages but once i move (in a few weeks time) the space i have available will fit 1 @ 2 x 11 grids and 2@ 3 x 7 grids, i think the extra width will be great but i'm a little worried about how easy it will be to clean? i'm quite short and the set up will be on tables with access to 2 sides...

Also is 3 x 7 big enough for 4 sows? i can always add a loft/balcony area if needed...
cheers

if you can access both sides to clean then it should be fine at 3 grids width i would think.

the minimum recommended for four piggies is a 6x2 c+c, so 7x3 c+c should be a nice size for them

cheers, i'm rubbish @ math for calculating area!

I have 3 by 8 and it is easy to clean. Mine is just one level. It will be fine for four sows. I have five piggies in mine.
