Gee111 6 Posted December 24, 2015 Report Share Posted December 24, 2015 Hi. I am currently wanting to build a new cage/court for my ferrets. I was wondering if you would post some pics of how you have built yours to give me some inspiration. If there is already similar topics could you please send links. Thanks for your time.

stealthy1 3,964 Posted December 24, 2015 Report Share Posted December 24, 2015 Should have added. Top is just one big run with a wheel and run pipes, no nestbox because they're put back into their cages after a day in the run. The two top cages with the brown mesh doors are 3 feet long each and 2 foot by two foot square. One cage has my two albino jills, the other top cage has my snipped hob, he is on his own but gets out in the run with the 2 albino's. The bottom cage is a full 6 feet long, and not seperated, it runs the full length, and gives me the option of making two more cages if I split it. In this cage is my 8 year old hob and 3 jills, there was another jill in there with them, but lost here this year, 8 years old. 1 Quote Link to post
