8x2 I think would officially be the minimum I think? I worked out my 7x2 *could* accommodate 5, but with my three girls in there, I think it would feel crowed with more, so I’d go as big as possible for 6!

Here is a good cage size guide (I like the pictures which give you a good idea)
Cage Size Guide
For 3 girls you need 2 x 5 C&C and should add 60 x 30 for each additonal pig so that would be a minimum of a 2 x 8 C&C for 6 piggies.

2x8 and I wouldn't go any less. I'd try a 2x9 or 3x8 if you can
Season time can be hectic with lots of girls....

We had a 5x2 with a 3x2 attached (so technically 8x2) for 5 piggies and when we added a 6th piggy I extended the cage again with another 3x2. That's lots of space for 6 piggies, but I wanted a bit spare in case I accidentally bring home any more!
Thankyou I do have a boar in with them so that probably helps
