Okay, here it is. I'm a new pig owner so I haven't a clue what to do on this subject. Currently I only have one.
I'm really busy for about half the day and get really tired around 10 pm so he's in his cage almost all the time (it's a small cage but he's only about a month old) he's also in there while I take my dog for his 1/2 hourish walk. He's only aloud in my bedroom (which is kind of tiny for me) and I have a carpet (plus lots of places he can get stuck in so I have to seal off about a third of what I have). He runs around okay but I think he'll get bored soon.
Should I let him on the floor while I'm away? I'm afraid of him getting stuck and my dog (who chews up cats and chases squirells, sadly it's happened) sneaking down the hallway. As I type, I'm chasing him under the bed and through the closet.
Just got him! Took me twenty minutes!
Also, semi-related question: How cold can their environment be? I was thinking of maybe setting up an outside area for him to crawl around in.
