Lunar_and_winnie_piggies
New Born Pup
Currently, my piggies hutch is just outside the house, very close to the wall and sheltered from the wind.
They have a cover which goes over the top to stop rain and wind getting in.
However, as it is nearing Winter, should they come inside? We don't have room for them in the house and it is a bad idea anyway as we have cats. We could put them in the garage but it can get even colder than outside.
They have a hutch warmer (quite common- you probably know what I am talking about) which I put in the microwave for 7 and a half minutes, which stays warm for about 8-10 hours. I also put a BUCKET load of hay in there.
I think where they are is the best place for them because the only other option is to put them in the garage which is also very cold, and I honestly don't feel comfortable with that.
They have been out in the cold for a while and seem fine, but you never really know.
What do I do?
