Hello,

Currently my gang live in a 120(pair) and 140(trio), they have run time together each day and have lived in my disastrous attempt at a C and C. I want them to live outside during the day but have to be careful of foxes and rats plus have two dogs who adore the guinea pigs.

I just wondered what you thought of this hutch. They would be in it from 8 - 4 each day.

thanks

WOW that really opens up! From the picture it's hard to guess scale but the dimensions seem to be ok for max 3 maybe. It's like a C&C 5x2 (just shy of 5cms). Some might say that this is better for the 2 only, and judging by the picture with the rabbit I would probably say start with 2 and see how much they bump into each other.

Plenty if shade, though I wonder how rain proof the roof is with the hinges like that. Easily fixable with a some tarpaulin if you find problems. Would you add any extra runs?

My guineapig doesnt use ramps, it would be a good idea to check how yours do with ramp before buying this or it could be a bit disappointing!

Good luck, and great find! Looks really interesting.
