Fun And Toys For My New Piggies?

[mrsclark24]

Sorry to be a newb about this but I just wanted some of your professional opinions

I got my piggies 10 days ago and they are really coming on. They are still skittish but they let me pick them up, they will eat from me hand and one really starts to snuggle in and rest on me. The other... shes not as much of a fan of being handled I don't think!

But anyway... I didn't want to stress them out too much when they got here so I put in their enclosure just a log bridge thing that they can climb over and under, a shelter (cardboard box) and some small things for them to explore.

Now that they are getting settled what else do you put in for your piggies that they enjoy? I have a nibble block that they like... What do you piggies like? There's so many things on Zooplus etc I don't want to waste my money and get something they probably won't like, so recommendations are most welcome! OR even if there's anything I can make at home and include my daughter...

Thanks guys!

mine love a new cardboard box ! Free from any supermarket... You could make a fleece forest, dangling bits they like to hide in those x

Mine love their fleece forest which we made very cheaply using a cupboard rack and tying on bits of cut up fleece (bought in poundworld!). My son made them a maze out of a box and is forever making them little homes and castles out of boxes. Hiding food around the cage is also great entertainment for them. We find ours our very curious and love new items to explore so new boxes are always fun. Our best thing has been a cuboid shaped tassimo box as it's made a fab tunnel. Even placing things in a slightly different position is enough to excite our sows, lol! I have attached a few pics and videos. My advice would be to make things on the cheap and throw them out when they're soiled.

washing line lettuce!

maze with fleece forest in the shot too!

Aww I love you videos, great set up so much space for them and such good cardboard creations...cardboard things are definitely the way forward!
