Farmers Garage Mahogany Rodent House 30 cm

Farmers Garage Mahogany Rodent House 30 cm

The Farmers Garage is a robust rodent house made of mahogany with natural bark and multiple levels. This little house not only provides your animal with a sheltered spot, but also extra runways, elevated areas, and opportunities for exploration within the enclosure.

At DRD, when it comes to dog houses, we look not only at the size but, more importantly, at what the house adds to the interior. The Farmers Garage combines sheltering, climbing, walking through, exploring, and sitting on different levels. This makes it a great item for owners who want to make the enclosure more natural, active, and interesting.

The house has an open bottom, two openings, and dimensions of approximately 30 × 20 × 26 cm. The openings are approximately 16 × 14 cm and 10 × 10 cm. Thanks to the open bottom, the house stands nicely on the bedding and naturally matches the rest of the interior.

Why choose the Farmers Garage?

The Farmers Garage is more than a standard little house. Thanks to the different levels, your animal can not only shelter inside, but also sit on top, walk through the openings, and use the structure as part of the interior.

For hamsters, this little house can serve as a spacious hiding place, passageway, and low elevation in a naturally designed enclosure. For pygmy rats and rats, the combination of hiding, climbing, and creating routes is particularly interesting. The house can then serve as a natural hiding place, crawl-through house, or part of a Ratscaping setup.

Thanks to the rustic bark and mahogany wood, the house blends well with natural materials such as cork, moss, tunnels, branches, deep bedding, and foraging zones. This ensures the house does not become a standalone object, but truly an integral part of the enclosure.

For which animals is the Farmers Garage suitable?

The Farmers Garage is suitable for animals that use the house to shelter, create routes, climb, or explore the enclosure from a sheltered spot. Always consider the size of your animal and how the openings are used in practice.

• Hamster/Gerbil: suitable as a spacious natural house, passageway, and low platform. Place the house stably and within easy reach in the enclosure.
• Dwarf rat: suitable as a hiding and play element. Because dwarf rats can vary in size, always look at the actual size and build of your animal.
• Rat: suitable as a natural hiding place, passageway, or part of a Ratscaping setup. The spacious opening can be nicely used as the main entrance.

Use as a playhouse, garage, or play structure

The Farmers Garage can be used in various ways. Place it as a central house in a natural layout, use it as a passageway between two zones, or position it in a corner for extra stability. Thanks to the open bottom, the house blends in nicely with the bedding.

Placement in the enclosure

The Farmers Garage has multiple levels. Therefore, stable placement is important. Place the house on a flat, sturdy spot or partially incorporate it into the ground cover so that it blends in nicely with the rest of the layout.

For hamsters, use a low and stable house so that it primarily functions as a hiding place, passageway, and low elevation. For dwarf rats and rats, the house can be part of a multi-level route, for example in combination with platforms, tunnels, branches, and hammocks.

Combines beautifully with natural decor

Thanks to the bark and the garage shape, this little house fits beautifully into a natural-style interior. For hamsters, you can combine it with deep bedding, a sand bath, cork tunnels, moss, and foraging material. For dwarf rats and rats, it fits well into a Ratscaping setup with tunnels, platforms, low-dust bedding, and natural materials.

A nice styling tip: place a little dried moss or a light natural decoration on the roof. This way, the little house blends in even more beautifully with the decor and the enclosure immediately gains more depth.
