I have a couple of chubes and also the green extending tunnel thing. The green one is a good length but because it's corrugated, not that easy to clean and is too small for my giant. Has anyone found anything that's a bigger size and easy to clean? I keep looking at piping in diy stores etc but not found anything suitable.

Ideas for large diameter tunnels?

My first suggestion would have been PVC pipes, but it sounds like you've explored that option.
Is it possible to make one yourself? Buy some flexible plastic that's durable, and then staple gun it together or something? Or if the tunnel can be square instead of circular, you could build something out of wood yourself. A few nails and you'd be in good shape!
Only other thing I can think of is those large concrete tunnels used for sewage and stuff. :shock: Probably expensive and hard to get a hold of, but could be a very interesting addition! :lol:

I think some people use the play tunnels for children, or how about one of those pop up laundry baskets and just take the bottom out of it

My buns love these http://www.pamperedpiggies.co.uk/products.php?cat=19 I have the 'large paper tunnel' at the bottom of the page. It's pretty durable paper if that isn't a complete contradiction but you can compost or recycle it when it gets dirty! Not much good for out in the rain tho
Just a thought - the large one is huge and big enough for a giant I think?!

I have this problem too with my Ronnie :? I did buy him one of the kids play tunnels from Argos, but it can only be for supervised play as theres metal bits in it. Another bargain i got him was a little tikes activity cube for £10, its got various places for him to hide and go in and out of etc If you have the room id suggest that :thumb:
If you have the room id suggest that :thumb:Thanks for the ideas everyone, Tamsin yours is great, will keep my eyes open. We have children's ones (for the children!) and the bunnies do go in those, as well as in my children's activity centre/playhouse thing. I was looking for something to go in their shed rather than in the garden, and ideally something easily cleaned not fabric as they do tend to wee/poo on anything that isn't hard plastic!
