brandygirl69 on November 14th 2009, 10:27 pm

I got them from a garden centre but they are good as I can give them a good scrub big smile

These are mine I built them over the summer, I am in the process of experimenting with paints (sugars house has a pink roof ) and second levels, but still waiting for my wheels from america, so cant really do the second level until my wheels are in there really.
Ivy's is the one with no wheel cos she was expecting then.
I've also cut the tubes down the middle due to a hibernation attempt by sugar (my smallest hoggie) and her getting stuck inside the tube before I moved the cages to be closer to the rad.

thanks!

panther_87k on November 18th 2009, 1:11 pm

looking good joe! have you thought about using fly screen mesh on the front instead of perspex? will allow better airflow and the holes are so small they cant climb it.

anglomaltese on November 18th 2009, 2:19 pm

Looks great Joe! Love the upstairs bedroom idea! big smile

I was going to say the same as panther about the perspex...I've just ordered some off eBay that is quite fine (size 40 i think, 42% open area) but made from stainless stell instead of fibreglass, so a bit more expensive. I know you can get the fibreglass, black or white, off eBay and for your size, prob won't set you back much, and is better for ventilation than perspex big smile
