c&c cages are indoor cages made up of storage grids and plastic correx. they are usaly DIY
 
I have just been out to my girls and re-heated the snuggle safes, I cannot say enough how good they are (they just stayed warm for 7 hours and would have still been going longer). I took it away much to Daisy's disgust and fed them tea, brought the snuggle safe back and she hopped straight back on. You could then see the dilemma of the fact dinner was too far away. I moved it closer for her because I felt sorry for her so moved tea closer and have just left my daisy eating on her snuggle safe. We have one happy little pig.
 
Just put my microwave snugglesafe out in the hutch and a cosy towel. They are on vetbed. And I have cardboard hopefully keeping out most of the draft from the open area. My husband built my hutch for me, it is solid and draft free, he siliconed all the joints from the outside when it was built. The boys fairly new to the outdoors as its been cold up here all through winter - tonight it decided to snow for the first day in weeks and I have lent our indoor cage to a friend who took on a pregnant piggy. Hopefully they will be OK and snuggle together. :hug:
 
We had our three in the dinning room last year over winter but my OH is allergic to them, so moved to the conservatory but was to expensive to heat as badly insulated they are now in our entrance porch and happy to welcome everyone when they come over and so cosy and it is lovely and warm in there.
 
Not sure if I am posting in the correct area so please accept my apologise in advance

Here is my question i have just purchased this hutch which has an under floor run

It's extremely cold as you all know its been rather chilly here in the UK so I plan on placing the hutch in my garage over winter but then

Relocating in the garden during the summer months. I have added ventilation to the bed and exexcise area but I've never heard of anyone doing this before ?

Can anyone see any possible problems?
