I am currently use HAY as my bedding and one of my pig is making the wheek noise always (i suppose its week) ... is it because they dont like to walk on the hay and eat the hay ? although i have pellet in their bowl too

The best type of bedding is hay – it’s great for sleeping and for snacking. Other bedding such as Fleece and recycled paper works too.

first page... or i misunderstand

I am still new so have to learn more 
I realized one of my pig is very picky ... she only want to eat fresh food and ignore the pellet in the bowl
one more thing they will suddenly run like crazy ... why ? how to check for mites ?

hi everyone! i'm new here...
thinking of having a guinea pig as a pet...
currently doing research and reading about gp to prepare myself.
i have a few questions though, i've tried asking in petshops but i'm not very satisfied with the answer given.

1. how much pellets should i give a gp a day? izzit ok to feed pellets in the morning and fruits/vege in the evening?
    Morning once, Evening once. Fruits & vege as treats or side dish.

2. i've seen petshops selling the metal ball thingy to put hay inside (for rabbits), can i use that for gp as well?
    Yeah, I'm using that. My GPs loves to roll it around the cage like football.

3. can i toilet train my gp, as in only poo poo and pee pee at a certain corner in their cage?
    Yes. Usually GP will mark a corner for them to only pee, for poo they just do it everywhere but the poo is better than pee. (not stinky and wet)

4. about how much do i need to have a gp (comfortably) for the cage, bedding, toys, food, etc?
  Oxbow the best brand for pellet (RM50++ a month), bedding (RM25-45) depends on type, otherwise use fleece or towel (check page 1), hays for munching (RM20++ a month), wooden toys or soft cardbox (tissue roll or Living World Big Tissue Roll) for teeth development. Never get the running wheel, as it only meant for hammies or hedgehog. Always consider big cage (DIY or incubator type, price depending). More space, more happy GP!

5. any other advice for a new gp owner?
    GPs are the cutest pet ever, when you look at their face it's like they are smiling with fat cheeks on the side. Go for it if you have time to socialize and spend time with GP as they need a lot of attention from owners.

just wanna share.. my koko the sheba..
     

As I've read in a few forums, oxbow is one of the best brands for pellets.. what about hay? any brand to recommend?
