I currently have 3 girls in this cage, and recently I found out my school principal has a guinea pig he's trying to get rid of. (His daughter got bored of it. :() I was just wondering if what I currently have is big enough for 4 female pigs?

(The picture was from before the piggies were all together, so the wall in the middle is now gone and it's all combined.)

How many grids wide and long is it. It's hard to tell from the picture.

Although I can't be certain, it looks like a 4 x 2, with a 3 x 2 attached

You do have enough space.

I would consider adding space to the 3x2, or adding an upper level.

Just make sure you give them a bit more floor time, but you have pretty big cage so you could have 4 piggies!

Yes that could work but if not I would add to the 2x3 part or something.

Okay, thanks. I'm not even sure if I'm getting this guinea pig, but I wanted to see if I had room first.

If the dividers gone, I'd say that's enough room, but you might want to consider reshaping to provide more running space :)

Yes, your cage is big enough for 4 pigs. Nice looking cage. I like the decorations on the wall.

Make sure to verify the gender of the pig you are adding. If they got the pig from a pet store, she might turn out to be a "he".
