Carrot Cottage Demolition Thread

Ah yes, the sky light. I remember it well. My problem with getting a new one is the place that sells them also sells massive delicious cakes in the cafe and my bum don't need more cake but I can't go there and not have any!

Oh come on, life's dull without cake. The piggies don't mind how much we eat:P
Anyone else's pigs use the cottages as a toilet? They divide their time between pooing on it and eating it:D

I've had to remove the latest cottage as the girls had been softening it up with wee. Stinky creatures.,
 
My two have finally destroyed the medium house roof! Caramac decided to climb on top to celebrate...

It's now out the cage and the new larger one has been put in. I cut it down a bit and added a door. No points for straightness! but piggies don't seem to mind.

Now that my monsters have finished destroying all the Chrismas packaging boxes I thought it was time to give them a new challange in an attempt to keep them enterained. After a full hutch and shed run clean out this morning I gave them their belated Christmas present.

First it undergoes a thorough inspection from the girls, whilst Brunel oversees proceedings.

Time to start work on that roof!

Brunel comes over to have a tast too.

I love how entertained it keeps them. We need carrot cottages for kids equivalent!
 
Heh my two have had two carrot cottages in there for about a month and a half now. I mean the front walls are definitely getting eaten away but since those two aren't the brightest bulbs in the box (sorry boys, but it's true) I reckon it'll be some time yet before they're gone.

Except Blitzen *has* discovered the top is made of carrot. So maybe not? They also seem to prefer to eat the things from the inside out.
 
I think I should have got the medium one then they could reach the carrot top!
 
Mine loved the first house they had and had good value out of it. The second one they weren't interested in the top at all, mostly ate it from inside out and lost interest after a couple of days. They tipped it over and peed in it so it had to be thrown away. Decided to wait at least six months before I got another one in the hope they have forgotten about them and it has new toy value/excitement.

Yeah, I got two of the large ones, which probably explains why Blitzen noticed the carrot ceiling, he's very long and can stand up to reach it. Thing is neither of them are ecstatic about carrot, and they do both like sleeping under the same roof, which wouldn't be possible with the mediums.

Comet in general isn't particularly interested though. It's a sleeping place for him and nothing else. Blitzen likes to tip it over and then perch himself on the front wall. He gets really irritated if you try to fix it, lol. But only ever the cottage on the left. He prefers to eat the cottage on the right.

Still the best thing I ever bought them, lol.
 
This whole thread was precious! Thank you to everyone who shared their photo's and gave me many happy giggles reading about the pig-scapades! :D Sadly my two demolish cardboard boxes in mere days, I can only imagine something like this wouldn't last the night!
 
Found this thread hilarious! Oreo has a medium carrot cottage but all he's really done is made a wide entrance to accommodate his large belly!

In his younger demolition days, Oreo would eat the entire front of the houses (so they had three walls) and tip them over and wee on the back wall. I had to bin them because they got so gross!

It seems he has retired from demolition but enjoys the occasional nibble.
