This cage looks to be pretty big and a good price. Is it ok?

That is definitely not a big enough cage. What tips you off with a red flag is where they say they are trying to sell it because they need to upgrade to a bigger cage.

That cage only has 3.5 sq. ft. and remember 7.5 sq. ft. is the minimum, not even close.
 
No its not suitable.
 
That's the same cage that my Agnes lived in before I adopted her. The cage was horrible. It has a metal bottom that is hard to clean, and there is a tiny hole at each of the four corners that leak because that's where she liked to pee! Poor girl =( she now lives in a 2x6 with her neutured buddy Walter! =) MUCH BETTER!
 
That doesnt seem to great of a deal. You could make a C&C cage twice that size for that price if you find a good place to buy the materieals. Check around a little, you can do better than that.
 
Definitely not!

yay! For some reason I never thought of this but my gramma is a realtor so I'll ask her if her office has any extra signs! woooo hooooo I can't wait to ask her!
 
Yup, the person who owned it is trading it in for a bigger cage.... It housed 2 pigs!! Thats unbelievable. Its much to small, good luck with the sign thing.
 
besides they're trying to sell it for 25 bucks and you can (at least where i live) get almost 3x3 cubes (around 9sqare ft.) for only five dollars more
 
That is roughly the size of a 1x2.5....way too small. For the cost of that cage, you can easily make a much larger C&C.
 
my loft will be bigger then that!
 
Thats waaay to small....... Just make a C&C cage....
 
yeah please dont use that cage. ask your grandma and if she doesnt have any extra signs, coroplast is pretty cheap. you might be better off just buying a sheet so you have one single piece to work with rather than 8 pieces to work with.
