Junior Guinea Pig
Hi all.
Had our little piggies x 2 for nearly two weeks now. I've re-laid out the hutch three times since then trying to get the perfect configuration. Originally had one hideaway but have two now so my girls can get some space. They're both in the bedroom bit. I've also got three 'litter tray' areas. I've introduced these after observing where they wee and poo the most. This way my nearly-seven-year-old will find it easier to do the daily clean up job. It was tricky for here finding sections of newspaper to roll up, etc. I hoping this way she can remove a tray, empty it, replenish with wood shavings and pop it back. Less mess for me to monitor! (I'm doing all the cleaning out at the mo.) also, after some modifications using Perspex to prevent falls we've opened the hatch to downstairs. Piggies still very wary though they've been down a couple of times.
I'd love some feedback on whether it's all too much or if you think the space is adequate?
Thanks y'all xx
