I'm making a new GIANT cage for my piggies! It's 6feet by 4feet, and it's huge.  I've only got the sides up right now, but it's a work in progress, lol. Here's a picture of the sides up, it takes up a big chunk of the room, so I couldn't get a picture of the whole thing.  |

Wow thats huge! You should get a rubber flooring because you dont want a mancky carpet!
You should turn that into a two layered house, it would be HUGE then!

I don't have carpet, it's hardwood floor, and I got coroplast today, so it's all good. The cage is done, Butterscotch, Patches, Midnight and Clover are running around in it right now, it's SOOO big. (6feet by 4feet)
(i'll post pictures when i get batteries for my camera!)

They've got two cardboard houses, two paper bags that they've either decided to use as a house or chew holes through to make a tunnel, some chube tunnels and a pvc tunnel! I don't think the piggies know what to do with all that room, lol they mostly just sit in the houses and peek out at me whenever I go in there!

They probably run around when I'm not in there, but whenever I go in there they all freeze, like they were doing something bad and got caught in the act. |

the new cage is great! the coroplast on the sides is so high that they don't make any mess! even when butterscotch runs her laps, nothing falls on the floor. |

I dont understand that vicky! Butterscotch sounds like a very fit sporty guinea pig!

in the regular petstore cages, they end up kicking shavings and poos all over the place when they run around. the sides of the new cage are like a foot high, so nothing can get over them. yea, butterscotch is crazy hyper, lol

You can have hutch's inside!! My guineas live in a sheltered non drafty shed place with the hucth raised on some draw things |
