Thanks for the positive comments. I recently lost one of my boars on the bottom so now there are 3 boys on the bottom and there are 3 sows and 1 neutered boy on the top section.
Guinea101 Bricks are not bad they are used to catch water from leaky bottles and for pigs to lay on top of to keep cool. A lot of people here use them.
Have you seen my thread about the cage designs that I have tried?
I recently tried again to create stacked cages for my 2 groups of pigs.

If you go towards the bottom you will see new pictures of what I had created. The...
Janet hit the nail on the head about this one. To be honest you are better with Windows XP if you can/or have the program already. My b/f to works with computers/servers, etc everyday and he told me that Vista is still not the best OS (operating system) yet. He has been beta testing (before it...
I know where Sheboygan is and my mom's b/f is actually from there. Talk about a small world. Since I have always lived near the IL/WI border I frequent WI quite often. My friends that are born and raised in WI say that I know my way around their state more so then most Wisconsinites...
Patience lots of it is what is needed. I have been working with my dogs and taking pictures since they were pups. They have learned that flash means camera. Camera means ham it up, and it also means that the little box with a flash gives out treats. What you see is trust between my dogs and me...
Ok, I finally got my pictures of my pooches upload onto photobucket and here they are to share with the whole crew here.

Both together
I just bought some new coro today. 2 full 4x8 sheets and 1 1/2 sheet for $30.00 w/tax. The people there always wanted to know what we made with the coro since quite a few of us frequent the store. I sent them an email today thanking them for the coro along with the website address and pictures...
Your rating my cage a 7.00 cause it looks small. Did you not read the discripiton of my cage. It is a 2X7 which is way larger than a normal cage size for the number of pigs that are housed in it. 4 pigs to be exact. Please redo your math cause a 2x7 is over 8ft in length.
The upper section of my stack cage houses my neutered male and 2 sows. Just like my previous pictures there is storage underneath the whole cage layout.
Here is the new home for the 4 boars. They now have a 2x7 on the lower level of this stacked cage. I will be adding a few more things here and there for them but it will pretty much stay the same for a long time.
Below their section is a storage area, well actually litter pan areas for the cats. Ab
This is the cage prior to placing in any bedding, food, water bottles, etc. This cage will house 3 pigs above in the 2x6 and below will house 4 boars in a 2x7. Everything is held together with connectors and zip ties.
I knew there was a third thing that I wanted to answer. Thanks for your info on water bottles but they are going to remain the way they are laid out. Since they have a tendency to leak at times I like to keep them over the bricks that I have and I do not want to have bricks lying in various...
Slave thanks for tips. In answer to your questions.
1) I am not sure if I will go with coro or with lino at this time for the base of the cage. I'll have to see right now what you see is a temporary cage bottom.
As you can see on the upper level the fleece runs up the back of the cage to keep...
