Hello Can anyone tell me what is the highest temperature and lowest that our piggie friends can take? We found out that my husband is allergic and we just made a big huge pig pen and will now need to move it to the garage out of the house.
Thank you so much

65F-75F is the temperature range piggies should be in constantly. They have a higher risk of heat stroke if the temperatures get too much above 75F-80F.

When you move your piggies to the garage, make sure that there is no toxic gas in there of cars. The gasses caused by cars are very bad for piggies!
In general, piggies are comfortable in temperatures that we - people - are comfortable in, but they are indeed more sensitive for heat than we are!
