Hi everyone
I have been reading through the forums to learn, and I might have got this totally wrong, so let me know if i have.
From what I can gather. Many people here have switched from using hay etc and have sleeping areas as follows:
Vetbed on the floor (with nothing underneath except lino), and fleece dens for the piggies to sleep in. The only hay being available to eat, and in a different part of the hutch. Rather than being stuffed into the sleeping area to bed down in. Is this correct?
If so, how will this fair during the colder months? Would I add hay to the sleeping area then? Or will the above be ok then too? If it is ok at all!
Also, for the fleece dens. Do I provide one per piggie? Or one or two larger ones for them to share if I had, say 3 piggies in the hutch?
Many thanks
David
