The Outdoor Guinea Pig Enclosure is available in two heights. The High-Rise version allows you to easily walk straight in. You can then spend more time having cuddles with your pet guinea pigs, cleaning the run, and topping off their hay rack and water bottle, all with ease. The Low-Rise version is a spacious guinea pig run, giving your guinea pigs a large floor area, at a lower height and a lower price (of course if you are less than 3.81ft tall you can still walk in). Both sizes of enclosure are suitable for all sizes and breeds of guinea pig.
The Low-Rise run has plenty of floor space and the height can be extended at a later date.

Add An Entryway Or Partition To Your Run
Now you can enhance your Outdoor Guinea Pig Run by adding an Entryway or Partition. Both are made from the same strong steel weld mesh as the Outdoor Enclosure and make a great addition to your guinea pig's run setup.
The Outdoor Guinea Pig Run Entryway can be fitted to any side of a full height (6.76ft) Outdoor Guinea Pig Enclosure and provides you with a 2-door entry system for added security and peace of mind.
A range of Outdoor Guinea Pig Run Partitions are available that are compatible with all sizes of Outdoor Enclosure and they are available to buy in full or half height. The partition features a secure door for easy personal access to each part of the run and can be used to separate different guinea pigs or to gradually introduce new guinea pigs to each other. It can also be used to create a separate feeding or play area.
The Outdoor Guinea Pig Run has been designed to work with your existing Eglu Go Guinea Pig Hutch, so you can create a custom guinea pig keeping area to suit your backyard. Use a Connection Kit to attach your Eglu guinea pig house directly to the guinea pig enclosure, or simply place your existing hutch inside the run. Your pets will love having somewhere to eat, rest, and shelter in their new guinea pig run, whether that be a hutch or a cardboard box.
Your current Eglu
Can it connect to an Outdoor Guinea Pig Run?
Can it go inside an Outdoor Guinea Pig Run?
Can the door be placed on the same side as the Eglu?
The size of run you need depends on how many rabbits or guinea pigs you’ve got, the size of your pets and how much time they spend on the run. Always aim to give your pets as much space as you can, but you can always extend at a later date. If you’re having trouble deciding on what run size to get, feel free to contact our customer services team who will be happy to assist you!
Is the run predator proof?
While the strong materials and thought-out design makes it extremely hard for predators to get to your pets, no run is 100% predator proof.
If you live in an area with lots of predators, including wild cats, coyotes and possums, as well as smaller animals like minks and weasels, you might want to consider adding additional protection to the run. If you've seen raccoons around your yard, it's also a good idea to secure doors and latches with extra locks to stop them getting to your pets.
Do the run panels have a new design?
Starting April 2023, the panels of the run now come in two pieces, attached together with run clips. This is to reduce packaging and to keep shipping costs as low as possible. The stability and integrity of the run is unchanged, and the assembly process remains the same, the new design just makes it quicker and easier for the product to be shipped straight to your home. If you have any questions about this, please contact our customer service team.
I have a very uneven lawn, can I still use the run?
Yes, you can secure the skirt of the run to the ground with Omlet’s screw pegs to make sure there are no gaps.
What are the dimensions of the mesh?
The lower half mesh is 1 in. x 2.9 in, and the upper half mesh and the roof panels are 1.9 in. x 2.9 in.
Can I attach an Eglu Go Hutch to my Outdoor Pet Run?
Yes, the Eglu Go Hutch can be connected to the run with a connection kit. However, there are some limitations. Make sure your Eglu is compatible with the size of run you have.
Can I place the door anywhere on the run?
Yes, the door can be positioned anywhere on the run, apart from right next to an attached Eglu.
How big is the door?
The full height door is 5 ft. 11.2 in. Each door is 1 ft. 10 in. wide and 2 ft. 10.4 in. high.
Can the run be moved?
It is possible to move the run, but due to the high quality materials even the smallest runs are relatively heavy. If you decide to move the run, we suggest asking for help from at least one other person.
Can I fix my run to a building?
We don’t have a customized solution for attaching the run to an existing structure, but many customers have done it. We suggest you speak to a DIY specialist to make sure you get the right fixings to attach the run safely.
How can I extend my run?
The run can be extended to two sections high and at least five sections wide. There is no limit on how far the run can be extended lengthwise. If you want a run that is wider than 3 sections, please contact our customer experience team. It is only possible to extend a half height run height and lengthwise, the width is limited to two sections.
How many covers do I need to cover the roof of my run?
This depends on the size of your run. The covers are wide enough to stretch over one section of your run, so if your run is two sections wide you will need a 6 ft. cover times however long your run is. If your run is sections wide, you will need a 9 ft. cover times however long your run is.
Can the run be kept outdoors all year around?
The run is designed to be used outdoors for years to come. However, we recommend that you check your run regularly for signs of corrosion, especially if you live somewhere with extreme weather conditions or close to the sea. Corrosion will occur if the coating has been scratched or scraped for example. If you do see some, remove any loose rust and touch up with a weather resistant paint.
Can I keep baby animals in the run?
As long as your rabbit or guinea pig is old enough to go outside, they can be kept in the Outdoor Run. For very small babies of certain breeds, you may want to add additional mesh or covers to exclude the risk of escapes.
I have had the pleasure of the company of a number of Guinea pigs and rabbits who have lived in a number of different homes we have made or purchased. The Eglu Omlet homes are by far the absolute best! Easy to clean, move, and provide water, food. The system is superb. The stress of the hot and cold weather is also manageable with the insulated house, covers and open runs. Our Guinea pigs have never been so peaceful and friendly. Instead of hiding, they confidently move around the enclosure, come up to the wire to chat, and generally enjoy the large open space. The tunnels are a favourite for both Guinea pigs and rabbits. Our Flemish giants fit through the tunnels with ease. We are all so very grateful for such incredible design and options. The accessories sold separately keep the old Eglu hutches new with clean bottles and new covers.

6x9 Run for Guinea Pigs
Danielle,
Maryland,
We have the 6x9 run for guinea pigs and we LOVE it. It is time consuming to put together, but using zip ties in lieu/as well as the removable brackets they give you will speed things up considerably. I like the clear covers for winter but the darker covers for summer so it doesn't get too hot.
Things to note:
• This has a "skirt" that goes on the ground to keep predators from digging under. I am not sure if this would be enough if you had a motivated fox. Our run is inside our garden which is surrounded by no climb horse fencing. On the outside of the garden fence, there's electric chicken netting. So we are unlikely to have a predator issue inside this area. But I would have done further predator-proofing if I was placing this in another area.
• I purchased the Eglu and connector so the guinea pigs would have a warm zone to go if the weather gets cold (we're in Maryland).
• The Zippi platforms don't work with this- I wish they did!
• The roof is strong, but it's not strong enough to hang a waterer from (I wouldn't attempt to do this). If you have a heavy snow load, you'll probably want to brush some of the snow off. We don't get much snow so I haven't tested this yet.

Our Guinea Pigs love their new home!
Georgia,
Would of given 5 stars but the price is abit more than we feel should have been!!
But overall very happy :)
We are really pleased with the new outdoor run (6x6), our 2 girls love it. They are so much happier roaming free. We have our girls indoors in the winter in a different hutch and outside in the summer. We took the plunge and brought after some umming and arring (it was way more than I originally intended to spend) but it has been well worth the money and all the other hutches dont look half as safe. We ended up buying the pegs to go around the edge and they makes it feel more secure. We have loads of cats and foxes in our area, so its been great peace of mind to leave them all day and not be worried something will get in. We brought some waterproof tarpaulin from ebay £15 3m x3m which works a treat and keeps the cage inside warm and shelters them from direct sunshine.
The only fault we had was the clips that connect the Omlet together are made of plastic and we feel they may not last that long.
We are thinking of buying an extension upwards (at the moment we have to crawl in and out) so we can stand up!

This run is the best!
Karen,
Northamptonshire,
I could not be happier with this run. My 3 piggies are like new. I had them in a large indoor cage but had no idea that this extra space would make them so happy and active. They kick their heels and run around and around. They can't wait to go out in the morning and they give me such a run around at bedtime to avoid going back in, that I usually give in and it is well after dark by the time I insist. I am nervous but may leave them outside all night when we have another spell of good weather. The basic run is a great size but I love having the flexibility to add extra sections and height, and its sturdiness and skirt makes it feel so safe. It is great to sit in with them while they pootle about and from the house we can see them running round and round the house I have put in the middle for them. I had no problems assembling it and could not recommend this run more highly. It is worth every penny and I can see no reason why it should not last forever.

Love my walk-in run!
Monica,
We show and breed guinea pigs. Had select monitored days before that we would let them out to play in a pen on the grass. The guinea pig loves loves being outside. I bought the Omlet 9x12x6 walk-in run for our 10 girls to stay outside year round. Spring summer fall winter. You read that right! Built an insulated outside house for them added an Omlet tunnel for their door. Over top there is a clear tarp that keeps the rain/snow mostly out of immediate walking area. Inside the run, I use hemp on the ground. Hemp helps wick moisture away. Keeping their walking area dry. Guinea pigs are very good at keeping warm. Need help to keep cool. We have rent-a-coop 5-gallon water bucket modified for their water (heated in winter) their pellets are outside in a big bowl. Pellets kept topped off daily. Fresh grass and clean hay provides daily. We’ve had hawks and owls come down to look at the run but as yet have not figured out how to get the occupants. Everyone was dry and warm over winter. We have very happy retired sows and grow-out sows. Awesome product.
