Help Me Decide Between These 2 Hutches

hi, weve narrowed it down to 2 hutches, can people say which they think is best for 2 boars- family is split-kids want 2 tier, I'm not sure?

I'd go for the single, it's longer and wider than the double. The ramp in the double takes away from floor space on the bottom, as well as the hole in the top, so that makes it smaller again. I'm not keen on ramps myself anyway

They're both 5ft but the single one has more depth. I personally like multi-level set ups though. Perhaps you could add another level to the single tier hutch? An advantage of this is that the ramp would be shallower as it won't have to go so far up to reach the next level, of that makes sense?
I also like that you can ad a run to the single-tier hutch.

I think that they are both beautiful hutches. With the double decker one, you have the option of turning it into two single levels if your two boys start fighting. Just cover up the ramp hole, put a bit of wood on the front of the small door on the right and there you are. Good to see that they both have proper metal latches. You can attach a run to double decker hutches too, these days.

thanks for the views, i think I'm going to go for the single one, the boys are a bit loopy & I'm worried now that the 2 tier would make it very hard to catch them and make them more stressed than needed. might look into making the bedroom area a loft thought?
