...Most hutches have a frame constructed of wood, including legs to keep the unit off the ground. The floor may be wood, wire mesh, or some combination of the two. One or more walls of the hutch are also wire mesh to allow for ventilation. Some hutches have built-in nest boxes and shingled roofs — these are generally intended to be placed directly outside rather than inside another shelter such as a barn. Some hutches have a felt roof.

I have two guinea pigs that I have owned for a couple of years now and they live outside. I have kept them outside since they were babies and have never had any problems. When it does get cold I put hay or straw in their cage and cover the cage with a blanket to keep drafts out. (Their cage is in the unheated rabbit barn). Make sure that your cage has a solid bottom if you do decide to put them outside, because guinea pigs can get their feet caught in wire bottom cages. If you decide to put them outside I would not take them out until spring because if you have them in your warm house and then take them outside where it is cold they could get too stressed and die. One advantage to having guinea pigs inside is that I think they are easier to tame and become more used to humans, mine are not as tame as I would like them! Good Luck! |

Bantam Chick Questions?
I have two bantam chicks I
bough, would like the guess
there aproximate age... they
are from the same clutch (and
silly me didnt ask when they
were hatched) But one is
starting to feather on its
wings, and the rest is fuzzy,
and the other is fuzzy. Also,
I do not have a brooder. I
have a modified animal
hutch/cage with news paper and
a bit of straw on the bottom,
and the tempeture is about 80
degree's. I try but I cant get
it to the 90 degree's some
places say. My chicks are in a
small container inside there
home with some food and some
dish clothes for extra warmth
plus the lamp. Will my chicks
be okay?
I put these small guys in a
container that is about 6in X
6in to keep them warm during
the night. I cannot run the
lamp all night (these guys are
in my bedroom till they get
bigger) Is it okay to leave
them like that durring the
night? or do they need to eat
every hour or so? same with
water?

If the wings are feathering up, they're probably a week or two old. At this age, eighty degrees is fine. Most of the answers are quite correct that huddled birds are cold. Also, cold chicks peep ALOT. In nature they'd peep and mom would come running to warm them up. So, listen for a constant peeping (they'll also peep for water and for food every so often, but cold peeping is Constant). You also need to think the other way as well. If your birds are lethargic and don't do much they might be too warm. The temperature needs to be lowered as they grow, and watching their behavior will tell you when to lower the temp. Best of luck (They are SO cute, aren't they??? Like little yellow dust bunnies). Edit: they should have food and water in their box at all times. That way if they wake up with a rumbly belly they eat and go back to sleep. If they sleep at night without peeping, they're ok without the light. Believe me, if they get cold, you're not getting any sleep. Awfully loud for such little critters, aren't they? |
