Cage Let's see your cage Pictures please.

I am quite excited to post my cage on here, we've worked very hard on it, and have made a lot of changes. But it has remained the same for almost 7 weeks, so I think it's safe to say this is how it will be until the summer. It's a 4x3 for two boars, with a plexiglass front. I would never go back to not having this plexiglass there, it's so fantastic! Their cage is currently decked out for Christmas, and since this is our first Christmas with the pigs, they have lots under the tree this year haha :)

So their cage has a bunch of different chews, including giant seagrass balls, which are their favourites. They just got a pigwam, which has been a massive hit. The red snowflake tunnel is something I made, with the outer layer being flannel print and the inner layers are 2 fleece and one u haul. It's gone ever very well :) They have a few different cuddle cups that I alternate between, this is the only one I didn't make. And then they have various toys and chews :) They have christmas lights, decorations, and of course stockings :) Hope you folks like it

OMG!! You are so skilled at that!! They are some spoiled babies!
 
I'm glad you liked the cage!! The last photo isn't something I made, I forgot to clarify that. I can make tunnels, cuddle cups and cuddle sacks, for things beyond that, I do custom orders on online shops haha

I LOVE your cage! It is so colorful and it looks like the pigs have tons of things to keep them busy! The flower stickers and Christmas ornament garland are adorable! May I ask, who resides in the tank above?
 
@SherwoodPigs - your cage is lovely. Where do you keep your pellets? I just set up a kitchen with coroplast, but this looks simpler. Also, how did you cut the plastic bin? It doesn't scratch the piggies?
 
Hi
They look awesome. Just wondering how do you clean it? My pigs are 2 month old, they are kind of messy
 
Here's my cage right now, it's a 3x5 for just the one pig. The carrot is no longer in there because it was scaring her, haha, she wouldn't go anywhere near that end of the cage the few hours it was there! I thought she would've liked it to sleep on or something, it's soft and squishy, but nope! (excuse the mess, I apparently like to take pictures days after cleaning day when I've smeared hay from one end of the cage to the other)
 
What kind of bricks do all of you put in your cages for the piggies nails? The ones you put on the outside of the kitchen area.
 
You are supposed to put bricks in the cage? Like red bricks you build houses with?

Bricks do nothing for their nails

And they're just used to keep the fleece bedding down(in the case of burrowers). Sometimes it is used under drippy water bottles so the spot doesn't get soaked with water.

I think some people have also been able to use them outside of kitchens if they use loose bedding. It may help keep the loose bedding from going everywhere.

I use them in my cage because a 1x2 section used to be an upstairs section, so it's 2 separate fleece pads and the bricks keep the girls from digging up the bedding where the pads meet.

Oh right OK. Mine don't get under the fleece actually. So eBay do wet flow about the piggy nails then?
 
Mine's kind of boring compared to these elaborate wonders. But the boys love it nonetheless.

We had to put a pillow on top because 3 of the 4 cats like to get on top of the cage, as you can see.

The left side consists of their hay, food, and a bathroom.

The right side consists of the hideys and a bed that is currently being washed.

Do the kitties not try and stock their paws in?
 
Yeah that's what I meant lol. I hate auto correct on my phone lol
 
Here's mine. I'm picking up our boys tomorrow... got the cage ready tonight. :)

Aren't those heavy? My cage is on a stand I made from extra grids. Wouldnt they be to heavy for the cage to withstand.
 
Amazing cages everyone! They're all so different and very creative!!
Here's my cage: It's pretty basic, but very efficient for me.

1 or a few won't be that heavy in your cage.
