I am looking to get some runs for when the weather picks up a bit. I'm looking for the biggest possible at the best price as preferrably I need to buy two so that they can all go out at the same time. I've noticed, however, that they aren't the cheapest things in the world!

I've seen 5ft runs on eBay for £49 each +P&P but this is the same size as their cage and ideally I'd like to give them more space. Also, it needs to have a proper lid on it (not a net - I have those already) and I would like collapsable ones, to help with storage.

I've seen this one http://www.netpetshop.co.uk/p-21860-galvanised-rabbit-guinea-pig-cage-run-enclosure-216cm.aspx which is 7ft x 3.8ft but have never shopped at this site before.

Has anyone else? Does anyone have this run? Does anyone have any suggestions as to where I can get two good quality runs from for a reasonable price?


Thanks :)p
 
I have this run. I ordered it off Amazon for about £70 its really great, loads of doors to get into and really sturdy as well :)
 
They have this run on zooplus too! I think it's €70 on the Irish one (can't remember what it is on the english one, but you can order from either) and free delivery. Except it's out of stock at the moment and should be back in a week or too hopefully. I was going to get it for my rabbits, but decided on two smaller runs that are about half the size . . . just because I have 2 rabbits and a small garden :( I really want the big one, but at least I can join the two small ones together if I want, and the small ones will be attached to a 4' X 2' cage so not too bad . . .

Guinea pigs would love this big one! But make sure they have a few hidey houses or tunnels :) Mine have a 4' X 3.5' run already and they love it, but they'd prefer a huge one :)
 
It's currently £59.90 with free p&p on the zooplus website but they also have a 5% off your 1st order offer and often run 10% codes if you can hold on 'til they have one of those going.

Plenty of space in it though - might get one for the kids;)

I have it, and it is fantastic :) my bunnies have it, although my pigs used it before them.(before I put toys in)

There's loads of space for toys, and its very secure. I haven't used that shop before, mine came from PetPlanet, so I can't comment on it, but recommend the run.
 
Yeah it looks good! But it does need some shelter. Like happysaz above posted the picture, they have put the towel over there. You can always do something similar. Or it's under somewheter shaded.

Ooooo looks fab! :) Thanks for the pic!

I have igloo things to put in already, they are in the piggies cages, then I was going to pop some boxes and tunnels and stuff in. I've got beach towels that I can cover one end with for shade.
 
That looks like a great run- does it come down in fold away pieces presumably? Which is better than wood I guess and it doesn't rot. But would it rust over time do you think?
 
Mine hasn't rusted, it's fine :) Oh, and you can buy proper sheet shades, which we have now. That pic was when I first put it up, so I hadn't put any toys of hideys in then!
 
Was looking at this for my rabbits, but the bar spacing is 3.3cm, does that sound like a lot to anyone else? I was thinking my baby rabbits would get out and cats would get their claws in!

It should be cat proof but the reviews say it's not fox proof, so don't use it at night, and be careful of dogs too. One review said a fox got in and took their bunny :(
