If the cage is too small take it back and get a new one! Never get anything hamster for a guinea pig. If you have a small cage then that means you got a hamster cage.
If i were you i would get a big cage so the guinea pig can run around Good luck with your piggie I have a big cage that holds 2 guinea pigs and they chase each other around the whole cage!!!
Depends on the Guinea Pig - also on the cage. I keep my guinea pigs in an open-bottomed cage.
I prefer an already built cage over a custom cage as they do last longer. I got my last few cages guinea pig cages here http://www.petproductsbyroyal.com/rabbit-guinea-pig/
You may want to add extra bedding or a shelter for your guinea pig as they may just want to burrow. I got my last guinea pig cage here http://www.petproductsbyroyal.com/rabbit-guinea-pig/ and love it!
I wouldrecommend buying a new cage or using a perused that is in better condition. Rust can be very harmful if ingested by a guinea pig
an animal may die if you do that. probably the guinea pig. :(

This is not really a custom cage, but a cage with homemade penthouse on the top. http://www.guinea-pig-paradise.com/homemade-guinea-pig-cages.html
I try to clean my guinea pig's cage around once a week or when it looks dirty.
no
It means that the guinea pig wants to go back In its cage if not that then the guinea pig is cooled
You might see the guinea pig look around the cage and call for it. Whenever I take my guinea pigs apart the one that's still in the cage looks all around the cage and if he doesn't see the other guinea pig he starts squeaking.
Guinea pigs need space to move around in, and some hamster cages are pretty small. Ideally a guinea pig needs at least 0.75 sq. m. If your pet seems like it does not like its cage, get a bigger cage soon
No, paraketes need a bird cage not something made for a guinea pig. They have special needs for their cage so you need a bird cage.

not necessarily; if you leave one guinea pig in the cage with the sick guinea pig, the guinea pig that is not sick can get sick; you should separate them just to be safe but if the guinea pigs start to get lonely, put them back together
Yes because there is the after birth from the guinea pig
