Any big enough?

[LuvMyPiggers]

OK please DON'T jump down my throat and jump to conclusions. I'm really not in the mood right now. Are there any pet store or commerical cages big enough for 3 piggers? Thanks in advance

Maybe, but it would probably be a very very rare, once in a lifetime find. You might have to search quite a bit though. The biggest cage at my local pet store is only 7 sq ft, technically not even big enough for one pig, but you never know, there could be one out there somewhere. Good luck.

Not really. You might find a commercial cage barely big enough for one pig but you aren't going to find one big enough for 3.

OK. I wanted to know because my friend has 3 pigs in a pet store cage. She still is in highschool while I'm in college so she lives at home. Her parents don't have a big enough house for the 2x5 minimum size, so she is looking for a bigger cage. I'm going to suggest she consider building one that will fit but also be big enough.

Even if you do find one big enough it's going to have a surprising price tag. You are much better off building one. Also you can build it to fit the space. Doing things like building L shaped cages to fit in corners or wider cages to fit in a certain length gap will give you alot more space than buying a predetermined cage shape. Adding top levels can help increase the space if you just can't fit a big cage.

the biggest cage i have seen is this (broken link removed) here. Bromley is in this one at the moment but I wouldnt say that it is big enough for 3 pigs. It was £70.

What about a 4ft hutch, you can buy them to go indoors for the cold

 

[glitterbug121]

Bromers, that cage is not that big, i think you can get bigger one's in pet smart

 

[bromers]

glitter I have never seen a petsmart in northwest london. there are a whole 2 petshops so I can only get what I can get.

 

[glitterbug121]

Oh ok, the cage you have are big enough for you guniea pig

The biggest pet store cage is the Marchioro Tommy 120 Rabbit Hutch. It is 47"x23", or 7.51 square feet. Same as a 2x3. Big enough for two pigs MAX.




Largest commercial one I can find is "The Castle" by Dook County. This is 18 square feet.

 

[LuvMyPiggers]

Thanks for the info.

 

[glitterbug121]

WOW thats big

 

[Slap Maxwell]

It is 18 square feet on each level. Costs about $450.

 

[Cherryrosed]

WOW! That is one huge cage. Just think of how many piggers you could have in that.

 

[aqh88]

Just think how big of c&c cage you could build for $450. I can build an 18sq ft cage for less than $30. Multiply by 3 and the most it will cost is $90. I got better things to waste my money on than a $450 cage.

 

[citronsoul]

...And just think about all the bedding that could fly out of that.

$450 & a messy room!

 

[Cherryrosed]

No kidding! I would never waste my money on that cage either.

 

[Slap Maxwell]

It's meant for ferrets, so no bedding pans.

If she wants to buy it, I'd suggest towels/fleece bedding.
