Hi - I bought a hutch for my daughter's two guinea pages last week and we tried it out this weekend, two things were apparent 1) it was too small and 2) within 15 minutes they'd chewed quite a lot of the wood. So hutch number 1 is disaster.
Now having done some research, like i should have done first time around, I see that the general view is that Chartwell hutches are considered the best option. So now I'm looking at a 6ft chartwell hutch (for less that I paid for hutch 1!). My only concern is chewing - my daughter's critters would have chewed through the first hutch within a day will this be a problem with a chartwell hutch? The wood on the first hutch was ridiculously soft so I'm guessing they just liked gnawing it.....
any help or advice gratefully received.
