Hi everyone! I made a post a few days ago about cages. After awhile of guilting my parents they agreed to buy me a larger one but I don't know what kind to buy? Any suggestions? Thank you! ☺️☺️

How many pigs do you have? I would get a c&c cage. The preferred size for 2 pigs is 2x4, and add a grid in length for each added pig. They are pretty cheap to make yourself, I made mine for about $40. The grids were $20 and the coroplast was $20 as well. You can also order them online from https://www.guineapigcagesstore.com/ It is easier to customize your cage when you make it yourself, though, but you don't have to.

Hi, it's great to see you've listened to our advice. And I'm glad we didn't scare you off [emoji23] I would definitely recommend a C&C cage, it's affordable and you can change the shape and size whenever you want. You could also get a Midwest cage, but you'd have to buy two and join them. As long as you don't buy those pet store cages it's fine.
Here's a website:

Thank you! I just bought a C&C 2x5 grid wide loft cage from well here this website! I think She'll love it! And it's big enough that if I get another piggie sometime soon she'll fit! So thank you again!

That's great, she'll be able to run around freely. You're doing good so far. All you need to do is get another piggie, which can be done in your own time [emoji56]
