Housing Question...

[baby-wilson]

Just wondering...

Soon i will have 6 or 7 g/pigs and I wanted to know how big their house needs to be... say a group of 4 boars, how much cage space do they need? And a group of 4 sows?

I want all my pigs to have MAXIMUM cage space so whats the smallest amount of space a group of 4 sows/boars will need? Ill probably double it

I have a C+C cage so any size will fit

Thanks everyone!

Have a look at this: http://www.guineapigcages.com/ it gives you guidelines for c + c cage sizes.
I'm don't think 4 boars together would work somehow no matter how big the cage-they will fight.

I know there are people who have kept more than a pair of boars together successfully - you should have a look around the forum, I'm sure there's some people here who have.

I'm not sure on sizes - but maybe build the biggest you can?

 

[baby-wilson]

yep def biggest I can

okay now I have 2 boars 1 sow...

If Cindy has more girls than boys so there is a male to every female or somthing... do you think they would all get on in a group?
I would prob have to slowly introduce them so they all get along hey?

Thanks!
