New Piggy House

[kennethyau]

I haven't posted in a while but thought I'll share pictures of the piggies' new home. Still got a few bits and pieces to add on and to spray the inside with an animal safe preservative. Hopefully the piggies will be moving in next weekend.

Th upper floor. I'm going to put some grids on the sides so the piggies can't jump off.

The ground floor

I've taken some of the doors off the hutch and made it into a gate.

It's taken 2 weekends but it's worth it I think.

Definitely worth it. May I suggest you put some sides on the ramp to prevent them falling off when they race up and down it, as it's quite steep.

It looks fab is it the play hut from B and Q by any chance? If so, I looked at this myself but it was a bit too wide so I ended up with a shed in the end.

Thanks, I have a ramp tunnel that i haven't put in place yet.

Yes they do go a bit crazy on the ramp in their current hutch.

Yes it is the playhut from B&Q, it was the only one that fit onto my patio. It's a bit smaller than I had originally planned as I wanted to add a few more piggies to the herd but it's not too bad for 4 piggies.

I had to go for a 3ft by 6ft as the 4ft width of the play hut would have hung over the ledge.

It really is nice and will be lovely and roomy for 4 pigs

Looks great! Once the sides are on the top level, I think it will be perfect!

Can I suggest something for the door?
Could you screw the left panel in behind the front wall and then you could use the other two as the door, it would save space you see

 

[kennethyau]

thanks for the suggestion rabbitdan. I thought about that but I'm leaving a little space at the door so i can sit inside on a rainy day and watch the piggies.
