I would like the piggies to have a summer residence...

This is a mixture of issues - first, as life hacks thread below, the mess is doing my head in. Second, I find their cages really difficult to clean/doing my back in (and they are two boars in separate but fused cages, because they love each other but one tries to gut the other if they live in the same space).

Finally, I'd really like them to have some grass time/a bit of fresh air, and we have some really beautiful weather here. As in temperate and dry. When it's freakishly hot or cold they will def stay in.

Not to mention we all have horrible allergies, and I know it would be sensible to have them outside if we're home all day sometimes Hmm

So, do I get two of those toblerone shaped rabbit runs?Is wood a problem as they quite like gnawing on their wooden igloos..never enough to break them though.

or do you you have a better idea?

We do have the odd snake etc - so definitely needs a small trellis/hole size in any wire etc. TBH have not yet seen one in our garden in a decade, and the owners before had their pigs outside full time, and no problems... but no point in looking at anything too airy.

Sorry, very long, I'm having a concerted "what do my piggies need" hour, and want to get them sorted!

Our gps live inside in winter and outside in summer. They love being out on the grass and have a run attached to their hutch.EWe let them out the run whenever we are home unless it's wet. Much easier than inside!
