hey guys! i am about to get a piggy!yay:D ! i only have room for a 2x3 cage with a second floor.i want to get 2 pigs because i think that if i only get 1 it will get lonely. sooo do u guys think it would be a good idea to get 2 pigs with a 2x3 and a second floor? or 1 pig?:p


p.s. i need answers a.s.a.p.! please:cheerful:
 
Okay, I was in this sicuation (sp?) before too. Well a 2x3 is the minimum for two piggies and make sure that the ramp to the second floor doesnt take up room. Maybe you could rearange your furniture or room to make more space? Thats what I did. Good luck
 
This was my cage with the second floor (2x3) : https://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j258/guineas-r-us/guineapigcccage001.jpg
Then I exteded it (wich made it hard to get the piggies from the bottom level: https://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j258/guineas-r-us/guineapigcccage014.jpg
Im sorry if this picture is unclear but here is my ramp, it sits on a grid hidey house so no room is taken up: https://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j258/guineas-r-us/guineapigcccage011.jpg
Then I just recently upgraded my cage to this(wich I rearanged my room to make room for!) : https://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j258/guineas-r-us/newcage001.jpg

Hope this helps, good luck!
 
I think we may be having trouble here with our piggies. Can some one help. They aren't eating any fresh veggies I put in their cage. No spinich, no puple cabbage, no parsley, nothing. One of them seems to be drinking a lot more the past few days than normal and her belly is "fuller" than my other one. Has anyone been thru this?
 
Sweetspice- First of all welcome to Cavy Cages.

Secondly, if you want to continue to post on this forum, you will do it properly using capitalization and punctuation. NO chat speak is allowed. We also frown upon using lots of smilies in a post. The rule of thumb is to use 1 or 2 smilies in every 10 posts you make. Smilies are a privilege on this forum and not a right. This is a warning to post properly. Failure to heed a moderator's warning can result in a one week ban. We are strict on posting because we have people that come from all over the world to get cage info and they need to be able to read and understand/translate posts easily.
 
Sweetspice, a 2x3 for two girls who already know each other will get by. I would not put two boars who know each other in those tight quarters at all. Even the gals will get sick of each other every now and then.
 
Thanks guys!!! You have been a big help. I have made my decision to get 2 girls, in a 2x3 cage with a second floor! Yay! I will make sure to give them extra attention!! Im sure they will love it!:p
