Stealth Stalker Posted June 29, 2006 Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 What is the ideal size for the sleeping box in a ferret hutch for 2 ferrets? What size hole for them to get in & out? What would you recommend I use on the plywood floor, preservative, yaught varnish or paint? Or other. Any advice is much appreciated as soon as possible, as work is in progress.

Ferret Master Posted June 29, 2006 Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 Hi, Mine is about a foot and a half across, a foot high, by a foot in width. I have a hole about the size of a tin of accupell airgun pellets but oval. It is filled with a xxx size fleece and they push this to the entrance in the Winter at night to keep the cold out and enter via a sleeve they moved so it pokes out as an entrance. It has a big hinged roof. Hope this helps. FM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
