Where I live (and probably most of Europa) It's going to be incredibly hot outside today. It's going to be 28 Celsius/82,5 Fahrenheit over here.
The sun shines directly on our appartment most of the day so you can guess it's going to be hotter inside here and obviously I'm worried about whether the pigs or too warm yes or no. So I need some tips.
I know about the freezing bottles, ice popsicles, desktop fans, damp cloths and the slates of stone for them to sit on/lay next to. But I'm afraid that might not be enough... Do you think I should take out a few hidey houses (I have like 6 wooden houses in the cage) as it might be a lot hotter if they lay in there? I also wondered about giving them a quick dip in water to keep them cooler for a few hours during the hottest part of the day till their dry.. but then I'm afraid they could get URI (Although there won't be any drafts as all the doors and windows are open very wide to let as much airflow in as possible...which will not help a whole lot lol).
Any other ideas to keep the pigs cool?
