At the moment Twinkle and Sparkle have a 7 x 4 run with a double storey 4ft hutch on top - overall sq meters are 40 sq m.
They use the 7 x 4 run 95% of the time I would say and use the bottom layer of the hutch 4% of the time and the top level of the hutch 1%.
I can see that they like to be on the ground so the different levels are not being used.
I was thinking of getting a 4 x 4 playhouse (cant go any bigger than this as tiny garden) and then attaching about 5 x 4 run. This would mean they would have slightly less sq meters but they would use it better. I could also put another level in the playhouse to up the total floorspace (probably 4 x 2 second level).
I am also thinking of winter and the fact Twinkle has been ill... if it is a bad winter.. they need to have a nice warm indoor area, but so far they have never used the hutch bit even through the long cold winter we have just had... so thoughts please? Is it fair on them to keep the current accommodation when they only feel happy in the run section?
