Hi
So we’ve had our piggies for 12 days now, they’re super nervous and I’ve gone totally hands off. One will grab his food now with the hutch door open so baby (piggie) steps!
Anyway, their hutch is outside, not in full sun from around 1300 but it sits on a concrete area that really throws off heat for most of the afternoon and early evening so I’ve moved them into the garage.
My question is, should I be moving back to the hutch each evening? Or should I just leave them in the garage until this heatwave is over? I’m really trying not to traumatize them too much by chopping and changing around. They’ve so far not had a decent run around or anything (despite my attempts)
They’re around 16 weeks old, boys.
