Which one should i get?

Answer 1

Go for the second, seems better with the feeding apparatus. They both seem pretty small, though. I keep my hamster in a cage the same size.  

Answer 2

I agree with those suggesting making a C&C cage. They are cheaper, and you can make them much larger than those two cages. I've found most cages that are supposed to be for guinea pigs are too small. They need at least 7.5 square feet of space (that is the bare, bare minimum, still not ideal) and most cages at pet stores just aren't big enough.

If you're determined to get one of those, though, I would go with the second. It's a bit larger and has the hay feeder, but again.. neither look large enough.

Answer 3

A cheaper bigger alternative is a C&C cage.

www.guineapigcages.com can tell you all about them, you can order them or go out and get the supplies yourself.  

Answer 4

the second is the best, i have that one for my Guinea pig, but i don't think you should keep the wheels on the cage.

Answer 5

My First Home for Small Pets From Super Pet

This one is my favorite

I would get this one

Answer 6

i would get the second one

Answer 7

the second one is better but neither is big enough for 2 guinea pigs or more.  

Answer 8

Neither! get a nice big C&C cage for your piggy! provided you have enough room for it. You should look into C&C cages to see if you have enough room.

Answer 9

I bought the first one about 2 weeks ago and its is a really good cage

Answer 10

ok i think nether because the first one is to boring and the second one will roll when your piggie moves so i sugest one of these cages

Answer 11

id say the second one.

because it has a hay feeder..

youd have to buy one anyway to put on the inside..

Answer 12

Personally i like the 2nd one better since you can move it around just by wheeling it around and not disturbing your piggies or you could get this one wich is great too: http://www.petsmart.com/product/index.js... its 4 piggies and its sold at a great store but you casn also make tyour own piggie cage heres the site on how to: http://www.petsmart.com/product/index.js... but sticking to your question i suggest the 2nd one

Answer 13

The Marchiano has heavier wire and plastic, so it is more durable.  They are a bit more of a pain to put together though than the other.  I would say that it would be worth it.(I worked in a pet store and have put both together)  It is also a little bit bigger and with piggies, the bigger the better!

Answer 14

any big cage is ok for your guinea pig

Answer 15

those cages aren't really meant for guinea pigs.

a C&C cage will make a big difference.

in the wild guinea pigs love to roam free in a large amount of groups!

heres a website that will show you how to make a C&C cage.

you buy the coroplast at a sign store.

i made a medium size cage for my 3 piggies and they love it.

best of luck.
