Baby pig cage question

Within the next week or so I'll be building a C&C cage for my piggies, I want to make it as big as possible but one storied for now. I'm leaning more towards a 2x5 than a 2x4. I have two 3 month old piggies and a 2 week old baby piggie who was born after her mother got pregnant before we got her..(see my introduction for the whole story).

Since she isn't teeny tiny still and will be a few weeks older when the new cage is put together do I still need to make sure the sides are higher than 6 inches and the grids are doubled so that she cannot get out? I will have the supplies to do so if I need to I just wanted to make sure first. I plan on always keeping enough on hand to make a second pen or add on to the first if needed, you never know when you'll find a new piggie that needs a good home.

Re: Baby pig cage question

If you make your coro sides high enough (8-10") you won't have to double the grids. After the pigs reach a decent size you can easily trim down the coro.
