As some of you may be aware we are getting sonic a new cage,
I would love to have him indoors and have been drooling over some of the fab cages about for that, but with george its just not viable.
So I am wanting to give him a bit of luxury and lots more space, to hopefully co-inside with him getting a new pal and have been looking at this as a new home to introduce them both into

I am a little worried that the ramp may be a bit steep so am going to lay fleece / buy a tunnel and or get the hubby to fit a little safety rail. But other than that it looks rather nice to me,
I'm a novice at this really so any advice on whether this is suitable would be great, Sonic is currently residing in our pet shops version of this one and is rather happy on his own in there but I think he needs more room as he is a fat little piggy and from what I have read the more space the boars have the less they may be inclined to fight? ( please correct me if I am wrong)

Hi i have the first one and i house 9 pigs in it at the moment, they are just about to move into their purpose built shed so i am rehoming the original hutch/run to supermum. I have to say that i brought it from another site and its called Mollies Mansion, the one you have found is a really good price for what you are getting and you can also buy the cover for it for around £50.00 and that is well worth the money as you can cover up all the run and windows during winter months. I would definatley recommend it as there will be tonnes and tonnes of room for your couple of piggies, all nine of mine are more than happy living in it.
I do advise that you put it on concrete slabe as it is very difficult to move and if you put it on grass your pigs will wreck the grass and turn it into sludge in ashort amount of time and the grass does not have chance to grow back. I layer the botton half with newspaper and hay and the pigs love it xx
