I'll soon have the opportunity to start from scratch with my accommodation for the rescued guineas.
Currently I have an 8' x 6' shed (wish I'd bought a larger one!) and various outdoor hutches for summer use, and quarantine area in my kitchen (don't ask.. imagine indoor cages stacked into some sort of skyscraper!)
So, given that I can now start fresh, what should I do? Obviously the building will need to be larger, well ventilated and positioned correctly re: sun and weather. What's the best way to insulate a shed (and rat proof it?).
Ideally I would like all piggies to live in the shed (i.e no kitchen pigs, well except Zippy and The Fonze rolleyes), so I'll need a separate area for quarantine - what do other rescues do, have a different shed / space?
Any ideas welcome!
Thanks
Sophie
