Hello!

I have two boar piggies! The have a Midwest Cage, and I was starting to look into C&C Cages. I believe I have enough space for them to have a 2x6, 2x7, or 2x8. Would that be enough room or should I see if I can possibly get a bigger size? I'm not sure if I can get much bigger, and I would like to get more piggies.

Thank you!!

Any of those sizes would be large enough, but the more space the better, so I'd go with a 2x8.

What I would NOT do is try to add any pigs to that pair. Three boars is nearly impossible, and it takes a LOT of room and patience to manage a herd of four or more.

You also have to plan for vet bills for pigs, and they can be expensive. I just lost a pig, and the vet bills for her in the last two weeks of her life were more than $700.
