''great looking run:):):) but some thing to keep a close eye on many guineas have chewed through that type of mesh in no time and other animals too x'' Thanks for that I am only putting the lads in when I can be there I was abit worried about that aswell so I can give them at least an hour outside at least where i wont leave them but will keep a close eye thanks xx

Looks nice :)

I will make the same warning as above about that type of mesh though. Foxes and squirrels will go through it faster than you can believe.

By the looks of it the run is intended for use when you are around, but beware if not.
 
Thanksguys but I wont be leaving them unsupervised at all...we are always in the back garden when its nice ourselves & when not at work and days that we work they are having a hour out when we have our tea....our dining room has massive opening patio doors leading onto the garden right next to the run so its really handy for keeping my eye on them ;) they seem to love being outside:)) so I am happy I will post more pics very soon
 
I am just about to build a run that the piggies will be able to access all day. Spent a lot of time looking at safety, researching the netting and so on.

Plenty of foxes and squirrels around here so I have to be careful to get it right :)

Hope the piggies love their new run!
