I hope to have a 3X5 with a 1X3 loft. I'm adopting 2 girls and i'm wondering if that would fit in this small of a space: length: 55 inches and width: 30 inches

If that doesn't fit, what size of cage would fit??

That would fit a 2x4, Which is Okay for 2 females.

If you can't scrounge up more space, you could make a double/triple decker 2x4.



Good luck!

A grid should be fourteen inches if you get the proper, safe size that piggies cannot fit their heads through. (The grid numbers have to be 9x9, NOT 8x8 or 5x5.)

No, it doesn't sound like it would fit. My cage is a 3x5 on the base and it is estimate 70 x 42.

You could have a 2x3 in that space, and maybe a 2x4. 2x3 wouldn't be big enough for two piggies.

Well thats the space between my bed and my dresser. I could try to move my dresser and then it might fit. 2X4 is good enough. OR I could put the cage on a table, and have some of it on the dresser. But it would have to be a 2X5. But I don't want it to be TOO high incase it falls

Incase it falls? If there's a chance of it falling I wouldn't put it up there... it could harm the piggies.

I don't think it could fall.

2x3 wouldn't be big enough for two piggies.

Actually, a 2x3 is the absolute minimum for two females and a 2x4 is preferred for two females. Now, if you have males, a 2x3 is way too small and a 2x4 would be the absolute minimum for two males.
