I thought I'd start a thread devoted to the workings of my piggy room and what goes on in it, any changes etc, as I have pictures dotted about here there and everywhere.
At the moment my piggy room houses 8 sows in 2 groups. A group of 5 and a soon to be group of 3 once quarantine is over. Here are some pics of how it is now :)

I don't have a picture of it on my computer, but it says:

WARNING! YOU ARE NOW ENTERING A GUINEA PIGS ZONE.
HOME TO:
Tikka
salsa
mavis
dory
peri
chilli
Mario.

ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK.

It's changing soon though as I need to re-do the names etc :)
 
It has been decided that, as my group has expanded, the piggy room will be having an overhaul over the next few weeks which will give me 3 L shaped C&C setups that will comfortably house 4/5 ladies a level whilst giving me more space on the other side of the room for storage. This weekend the piggies will move into temporary accommodation and the piggy room will be dismantled so we can start building a frame. We hope it won't take more than a couple of weeks. Exciting times!
 
Oooh exciting! I can't wait to have a piggie room. I think I get more excited over the new cages than the guinea pigs to be honest!
 
I do love rearranging and organising! This is going to be a nightmare to build and I have no doubt there will be blood sweat and tears as neither of us are amazing at DIY but it will be worth it in the end! :)
 
It will! I just realised on my last post, I meant more excited about the cage than the guinea pigs would be. Not that I love cages more than the guinea pigs themselves :doh:.. that would be weird. :eek:
 
Haha! I got what you meant :P

I'm thinking a nice pastel orange for the bottom section of the room and a nice pastel lemon for the top half, get rid of the horrible browns in the room and brighten it up :)
 
That sounds really nice. I love fresh pastel colours :) Light colours always make the room feel bigger too.
 
They certainly do! It does need a repaint so i thought while we are dismantling and clearing the room for a new setup we may as well spend the extra day painting it :)
 
The gerbils tank is the 5th picture down, filled with bedding as they are a burrowing animal :) I don't have pics of them to hand at work at the moment sorry.
