Thank you! I got Amy to come down the ramp with cilantro. She did it in a weird way, but she did it lol. We will see if she does it again. I got chloe to reach down to the ramp to get some cilantro, but she is still scared of it though.

Looking good!!! That is a lot of good piggy living space!!!
Some pigs are a bit iffy on ramps to start. Putting something up the ramp they really want, fresh veggies say, usually does the trick. Once they go up, they are more willing to go back down.
Great job!!!

Thanks! I keep checking in on them. I will keep trying the veggie thing with them. Chloe just streched her neck down to get the veggies on the ramp lol

Give them time. I looked at the cage pictures again, and can't see anything wrong with the ramp. I think they are just getting used to the whole new set up.

Amy has done it! Up and down all by herself. Now, just one more pig to go. I put a food bowl on the bottom to maybe to make her want to go down there and only give on the bottom. I have two bottles on the top and bottom.

Glad the ramp is working out. Soon you'll find all of them zooming up and down as if they've been doing it all their lives. I love to see mine popcorning on the ramp, cracks me up.

Mine don't all zoom, and don't always zoom. Before I divided the cage, Morty would zoom up and down one ramp, across the cage, up and down the other ramp, until he got tired. Later he would run up a ramp then part way back down and use it as a spring board to jump. The girls don't see the ramps as that type of fun, but love to do under the ramps and bump the ramps up and down with their heads???

Hi I know this is an older thread but I am using it to make my cage this week for my babies. I understand most of it except the ramp. How did you make it?
