Re: guinea pig homes
All GPs need is a little house to hide in and some tunnels. Give them a hammock and a snuggle bed by all means but be prepared to be always emptying poo out of them and having to wash them because they wee in them too! Hay to burrow into (and eat), a full food bowl and water bottle and a tunnel or two to run through will keep them amused. I also put clean pines cones and willow sticks in for them to chew on but generally, pigs do not play with toys. Make sure that you leave enough room for them to run around.

Re: guinea pig homes
Well, maybe have a salt cube, or ball to chew on so that the GP's teeth don't grow very long. Or you can get an apple tree branch, Are the snuggly beds the smaller versions of dog beds? and if not, get one of those

Re: guinea pig homes
Yes sounds like you have got everything they need.
Have they got hay because it's very important for guinea pigs to have hay at all times as it's around 80% of their diet. I always give ours loads of hay and they hide underneath it.

Re: guinea pig homes
Hey there

I find that a toilet roll tube (cut down the middle) always goes down well with my pig, and it's not dangerous that he eats it.
As for guinea pig beds and accessory ideas, you can always check out my site to see pictures of my pig and his things. He always has a tunnel, which is really popular for playing in and sleeping, also a cuddler bed (the small dog bed versions), a blanket, constant hay,a cozy, a rabbit rattle toy, and a chew toy.

Have fun with your pigs!
