Pigjes Piggadise

I know, I know, we overdid it, lol.

But, everything to please those beedy sweet eyes!!! Here's our cage. The cabinet on the right is even a fire exit escape "pod", as the pigs can be chased in there, sealed off moving 4 clips and close the entrance, close the lid and roll the cabinet out the door: all done in 2 minutes in case of an emergency! It contains the most important items, like pellets, hay and meds, as a survival kit.

As there are no c&c grids here, the cage is built from connected playpen panels. Easy to build, works as well and doesn't rust like the grids did (had the shipped to here: they didn't last 3 years).

OMG!!!!!!! how precious I want to build cages out of play pens too. We have grids here at west palm but they are too expensive and while I pay 12 for a set of playpens I will pay 20+ for a set of grids. I still dont have the enough money but I have some ideas to make the cages as fun as possible.

I had grids shipped to me for TONS of money. I was so pleased back then.

First, it turned out that there is almost no way you can build a cage without a helping hand. Too many zip ties to hold and handle on your own. Then, they started corroding from the pigs pee. They didn't last 3 years and that's too expensive.

The cage playpens are made from tin or zink, so they don't rust. They handle easily on your own, especially because there are already 6 linked to each other. They bend more easily then the mesh grids I had.

It's too bad there's no market for cavy cage designers, lol. We could make a fortune!!!! You have such great ideas, and quite a portfolio of different settings. You'd get a lot of business.

omg, thats such a cute idea, i just got my little skinney pig, and i eventually plan on upgrading his living space! (hopefully by building a new cage) lol, but ya, thats such a good idea, i gotta say!

We would love to see your piggie feel free to join the gallery
