Made a mistake with Correx :/

[elmoscavypigs]

I'm so stupid, I've gone an ordered my correx sheeting wrong, I've now got several small sheets instead of one big one ((sigh)) that will teach me not to go ordering stuff when I'm tired, hopefully I can send it back.

what size sheet do you reccomend I would need for a C and C big enough for 4 piggies? I'm bringing in Archie, Noelle and Snowy over winter because Archie and Noelle are getting on a bit now but I'm going to make a 4 pig sized one. The other pigs will be in my heated shed with hutch covers and heat pads etc but I'm worried about how this little group would cope, little Noelle especially so I've finally convinced my OH to let me build a C+C yay.

however, I'm not so good at making stuff ... :laluot_20:

Could you not join the pieces? I used this tape from Screwfix to join mine as I made an odd shape C & C :

What size cage have you made? A 6 x 2 ?

I got correx which was 8 foot by 4 foot. This was to suit a 6 grid (7 foot) by 2 grid (28 inch) c&c cage. I believe this area is suitable for 4 piggies - but if your area is wider and shorter then you may need to make adjustments...

Hi, thanks for the replies, yeah I will probably be making a 6 x 2, i'd rather it was all one piece so it's stronger and my house proud OH is worried about it looking a mess if it's taped up so I'll send it back and get another sheet x

I made my C & C with two small pieces since thats all i could find. Made two sections to it with a little cut out so they can get from one section to the next. Bigger section is fleece little section is hay and i'm rubbish at making things too so it can be done. :p You can kinda see what i did here.
