  1. If you provide your guinea pig with plenty of good quality hay (which is essential to their diet anyway), they really don't need chew toys.  The hay will do the same thing as the chew toys and it is much better for them.  If you do buy chew toys for them, watch what is in them.  Some are made from hay and such but are loaded with sugar and are VERY bad for guinea pigs.


  2. wood toys

  3. Well actually some guinea pigs don't chew on their toys while some do. But i would consider buying a wood log. I know that my cousin's guinea pig love chewing on that thing.

  4. do guinea pigs even use chew toys? ive never heard of it before

  5. DON"T GET THEM! I got the most expensive kind, and she NEVER chews on them

    And Laura Oh, they would not be able to live in any outdoor area. They should have a large cage, true, but the temp can get very high and they can easily die from heatstroke. They can also die from poison if you have fertilized your lawn, are growing fruits or veggies, etc. They can not eat a large variety of grown plants, such as Spotted Ceaser (fake dandelion)

  6. go to petsmart.com and you can see all the types of chew toys and their prices.

  7. In my opinion Guinea pigs should live in groups in large outdoor areas.  they will naturally chew on bark and roots.  It seems to me unnatural and very cruel to keep them in a cage or hutch.  Google or Wiki guinea pigs to see how they ought to be allowed to live.  I had one once in a cage and it broke all its teeth chewing the bars - that is just wrong and so i found out about them and have kept them since, but in humane conditions, which means a huge huge run with shelterbuilt in.  These are creatures not toys.  hope you treat them well!
