I got my piggies a playpen today so there’s no more escapees. They seem to be okay but getting used to it. How long should I have their first session and how long does it typically take for them to become used to the change in environment?
 
When I attached my piggies’ playpen to their cage I just left it and let them adjust in their own, not sure whether that’s what you’re supposed to do or not but I did!
 
If you add lots of hay and scatter salad around and add some of their favorite hidey houses and tubes or a couple of cardboard boxes with doorways cut in the sides, you can probably just pop them in and leave them until they get bored! Mine have 4 to 6 hours of playpen time twice a week on cage clean days, plus extra if we happen to get home early and fancy some piggy time in the evening :)
 
If they are worried about the open space, just peg a sheet or blanket over the top, or part of it. Put hideys/cardboard boxes with 2 doors/log tunnes and chubes (cardboard tubes) etc. at about 1 ft distance from each other, so they can use them as safe bases to explore from. Give them plenty of time to become more familiar.

Sprinkling some hay, their veg or some pellets around can help with encouraging them to explore.
