I will be neutering one of my boars soon (I have two boars, they live on separate floors of a double hutch due to fighting), and 6 weeks after the operation I'll introduce him to my pair of girlies. My girlies live in a 120 cm cage indoors because I adopted them in the winter. I do not have enough space indoors for three piggies in one cage, there's barely any room for the girls' cage, so I'm going to buy them a 5ft hutch for outdoors. Does anyone have any experience with this specific hutch and if it's decent? Was planning on getting the 5x2 one: http://www.happyhutch.co.uk/single-storey-rabbit-hutches/flat-roof-rabbit-hutch-long-legs-detail

Also I was thinking of getting a little shelter raised off the ground for when they have exercise outdoors. Is this a good one? http://www.zooplus.co.uk/shop/small_pets/hutches/single_storey_hutches/outback/100178

I know this is a bit off-topic, but I am not quite sure what to do yet with my second boar. It was suggested I split up the girls and introduce one girl to each of my boars, but I don't think that's very fair on the girls. What would you suggest? And if you do think I should split up my girls and have one for each boar, would it be a good idea to have this double hutch so they can all live outside while still being space efficient? I was thinking 4x2 ft or maybe 5x2: http://www.happyhutch.co.uk/double-...hes/double-decker-outdoor-rabbit-hutch-detail
 
I have a couple of happy hutch hutches for my rabbits and am very happy with them. For the money they are a good buy. With regards size, always go as big as you can afford.
 
Thanks!

I'm actually not sure about the double hutch because the bottom floor of my current double hutch is a pain to reach, and I'd prefer not to have that. I'll probably go for 5 ft, as it's the largest size that will fit in my garden in a nice sheltered area.
