bascly i got 5 female pigs all going to live together so i want a lrage hutch for them with run if poss or not and i may have more on the way depending if the female give birth to girlls. please post links money isnt much issue here i want a good hutch to last all of them thanks..
 
atm the baby i though was a male is down my mams *** she was fatten him up for my firned but only now we both sat down and sexed him togethetr and looked at images and the other female pigs and the all the same :D I'm glad *** she is m baby. and i got 4 up the house they indoor but go out in the run everyday unless rain or snow i was thinking on a chicken coop but i want it to be large enough for them all to stay in if the weather is reallly bad and enough room so they dont get pee off with eachother. ideas would be brill.
and i also think the female 9 week old i got when she was 7 week is prego she was kept in with her bros.; :( its sad really that why i want to keep them all, all girls together and if any males pop out if she is prego i will sort things out for them.
 
How about getting a shed instead of a hutch you could use the whole of it as a free range mega hutch, you need to put a wire opening door inside the proper one but it wouldn't be hard.
 
I think to get a hutch big enough for 5, you may have to join two together (side by side with a drainpipe connecting them or something). All of the hutches I have seen wouldn't be big enough because if they were all in the house bit above the run at the same time (say if the weather was bad) it would be a bit overcrowded - but I may be wrong.
 
The trouble with those is, in this country the weather is mostly not good enough to let them out they would then only have a small area to live in. unless you have a massive shed or undercover area to put it.

I think most ppl just use normal garden sheds http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/7057104/Trail/searchtext%3ESHED.htm So for the same price (ish) as your link to the hutch, you could get something like this, but I'm sure other places will do bigger or better quality ones. I'd love a guinea shed rolleyes
