Finally Built My Ferret Hutch Court.

[millytheterrier 12]

After sometime on planning where to build my ferret hutch court, I chose next to our garage under cover. lol

 

Its taken me & our dad 2 days to build it and finally finished it today.

You've got 3 sections, top is sleeping area and food area and other two are just where they can play. just need to make holes in the floor now and add tubes or ramps. etc

 

 

 

Thanks.

Good effort pal! would have used ply to be honest though myself!

 

That stuff rots very easily.

Looks well done that mate

 

 

Only thing to be aware is keep an eye on that chip board, i think it's probably rare but one of my hobs managed to dig through it

Deffo be careful mate as chip board is put together by glue which is poisonous to ferrets when it become wet.

And also tend to fall apart when wet allowing ferrets to escape

cracking hutch mate,like others have said if it gets soaking it could burst open.i feel bad saying after reading your write up aswell.only thing i can suggest is sticking it in the shed or the garage or something.ATB anyway you obviously care for the wee buggers.

It looks undercover ,,the back looks like ply rather than sterling board , give the crapping corners a good bit of gloss paint and it should be fine ,

[millytheterrier 12]

Thanks for the replys, and I keep eye on it if it gets wet. although it is under cover. so it should be okay.

I bought a cracking hutch off a guy a few Months back. He was a retired joiner and was making single, double and triple hutchs to sell and make a bit of money. He made me a triple and when I went to get it I was amazed at the build quality. I've never seen a hutch that's made so strong, it's absoloutley rock solid. I keep my 3 jobs and my Jill in there. I can't upload a picture as I'm using an iPhone.

 

Your hutch looks good mate. Well done
