Many Thanks,  will check it out.

8ft by 6 is £415 delivered,  views on value appreciated as they have no image to show me!  Sounds like a traditional style with metal roof etc.

for only two finishers a calf hutch does the job as well. I use some of them, made of one piece plastic, nearly unbreakable. and roundabout 150 £ or so. Built a floor for one last week and a plastic curtain, to make them a bit more comfy in winter.
Not to say no to well manufactured arks, ut for only two pigs at a time that'll do.
