maryh said:I am afraid I feel that if you are unable to keep piggies inddoors as part of the family,you should not be keepimg them.Piggies react badly to big changes in temperature.,and the boars especially are inquisitive and like to have things going on around them.I do not see the point in keeping any animal outise in a shed or in a hutch,what can you possible get out of them.I am with my piggies most of the time and they amuse me,annoy me,worry me and there is constant reaction.I know straight away if one of my pigs has a problem,because I can tell my behaviour.I do not see how you can have this wonderful relationship with pigs kept away from the house.
Well I am unable to keep my two bars inside.
I have never kept piggies until about 7 months ago so still learning. I recsued two boars from not good conditions :'( we weren't keeping them we planned on rehoming them.
They were and still are on the rehome section the people that have asked about them thought a 4ft hutch would be too large for them > the only lady wanted to put them outside in a 3ft hutch, when I tod her that was too small she got really nasty..
We had about 5 people like that > myself and husband went out and bought them a shed, that was our Christmas present to each other.
So what do you suggest ? as you think I should't have animals in shed :-\( by the way also have 4 very happy rabbits in a large shed/enclosure..
I already have a lone boar in the house and two housebuns so can't have them in the house.
