Need help with size of cage

[curious3]

I am in the process of getting another guinea pig and was wondering if a 3x5 bottom with an upper deck about half that size would be ok.

 

[RubyPiggie2]

How many guinea pigs do you have?

 

[cavy-cool-crazy]

A 3x5 bottom with a loft is big enough for about 6 pigs. Don't forget to quarentine the new pig for 3 weeks before introducing to the other(s)!

Going to have three....have two now and it is going to be a 2x4 with an upper deck

A 3x5 is enough space for 4 or 5 pigs. It should be fine.

 

[RubyPiggie2]

Wait.. you just said you were making a 3x5 but then said you were making a 2x4. Which one?

I would say no more than 5-6 pigs in a 3x5 cage. A 3x5 is just one grid larger than a 2x7.

.....What?

I think Ly meant a 3x5 is just one grid larger than a 2x7.

Yes, it was a typo and I edited and fixed my typo.
