Best Answer

Yes, as long as there is a place that they can get off of it. My guinea pigs live outside in a cage on the grass. Just make sure they have a sleeping area that they can jump into to get off the ground because it can get cold. And in winter I put a tarp around the cage to keep them warm. And in summer you have to keep them cool. So I just wet them with water and put them back. Cucumber in summer is also great because it is full of water. They love it. And make sure that they have a fresh supply of water. !! Hope that helps !!

Can guinea pigs eat timothy hay pellets instead of the grass hay?

As it is edible for them and helps wear down their teeth. People feed timothy hay to guinea pigs that aren't pregnant or young as if you give a normal guinea pig alfalfa hay (which is for pregnant guinea pigs and young guinea pigs), it will be too high in calcium (I think) which is bad for them.
