Answer 1

It's not that bad, you really do worry a lot about your little guineas don't you?

I suggest you put a few layers of newspaper over those iron bars, that way it won't hurt their feet.

Answer 2

It would be bad if they got their feet stuck in it but if that doesn't happen, for that short period of time it should be okay, but i don't see why you cant just pick them up.

Answer 3

why can't you just pick them up and out?

Answer 4

Rodents are always crawling around things. I'm sure what you've provided for them is a lot less dangerous than if they were running wild. They'll be fine. They're agile little things; don't worry.

Answer 5

You can try this:

1. Try picking them up

2. You may want to get another page---a plastic one

Hope that helps!

Answer 6

don't worry your guinea pigs wont hurt them selves it will be much worse in the wild so if it worrys you so much just take some construction paper and lay it on the iron bars! :]

P.S: DO NOT USE NEWSPAPER IT MIGHT GET INK PIOSONING IF  IT CHEWS ON IT!!!

Good luck with your pets!
