this is the front, i am replacing the door making it have the door open in half lol and adding mesh

this is where another door is but I'm making it fully mesh for ventilation (dont know if it was going to make it half mesh or full the shed will be under shelter also)

there is attachable porch and i am adding wire so the pigs can go out there too when i am home as i might be adding a cat flap that locks

i am going to add lino type floors, shelving for storage at the top, with the roof it needs fixing to help with keeping them warm when cold weather and cool in the heat also with the ceiling i am adding i will add lights and something to help with keeping them cool in summer like maybe a fan on the roof not sure yet.

the shed is about 13-15 sq ft (as i measured it and its bigger than the cage with is a little bigger than the size requirements for four piggies so i know i am safe ) which is perfect for four piggies as on the guineapigcages.com site which states they need this: 13 sq ft more is better 30" x 76" 2x6 grids 27" x 84" :) that isnt adding the porch which will allow them to run around its a little extra space which is good.
i will be repainting it also to match my house very exciting

so i would like ppl to post what they did to they shed with storage shelving and how things are presented with the final finish with all the pigs too
 
Wow that is going to be some piggy shed! Looking forward to seeing progress photos and finished product.
 
thanks i will like to see everyone elses for i like more ideas
 
Woweeee, it's huge! Will be a piggy palace when it's finished, looking forward to pigtures!
 
Here is the thread for my shed. Since it was built, it now has a shelving unit that houses their food and a cork notice board. There is lino covering the floor with newspaper, wood shavings and hay over the top. I need to insulate it somehow in the winter but my pigs love it. It is 6ft by 3ft http://www.theguineapigforum.co.uk/showthread.php?t=94306
 
hehe thanks everyone i am getting it deliver to my house saturday and thats when ill start my magic (well my dads) hehe it will take some time but i am up for it i really am i am so exited for a store brought cage is too small, i cannot get a good hutch big enough :( stupid australia lol. all my home built cages are to heavy lol and just never work out like i want, a c&c cage was to hard to look nice all the time and i only had my room to put them in and i dont have the space so a shed it is for that way i can rearrage stuff inside and its plenty big :) i can have my stroage also in there so it takes up less room when i consider all the other factos and it looks awesome lol
