Hi berniel & Nic, I’ve put holes in our hog house as it’s supposed to help stop condensation! Ours has a screw on roof, so we put air holes at the top of both sides and some sheeting over the top with bricks on. It’s under a trees low branches and the tunnel faces east, as was the suggestion, as most of the rain comes from the west. Facing north is too cold and south too warm. If you are a man who has a lot of tools, including a under floor inspection camera, make one of the holes big enough to get the camera in. I made the mistake of not doing this which has really annoyed me. Its less disturbing looking in the box with a camera than lifting the lid. You may not see much if the hog packs the box full, but you will be able to see if a rat or mice have got in there. My wooden hog house is on flags and has two strips of wood along the bottom that lifts it off the ground a little. Best wishes.
