Well, they are nocturnal. They prefer to sleep during the day and eat and drink during the night. While i had two of them, They never liked there rolling balls or wheels. They prefer to lounge around.
NO GUINESA PIGS ARE NOT NOCTERNAL THEY LIKE TO WALK AROUND AND EAT BUT THEY DO NOT SLEEP ITS TO BRIGHT I HAVE A GUINEA PIG AND ITS LIKE YOURS BUT LOVES FOOD LISTEN TO ME YOUR GUINEA PIGS ARE FINE BUT SOME OF THEM LIKE TO PLAY AND OTHERS DONT IT DEPENDS ON THE AGE SO
well, guinea pigs generally popcorn when they are feeling happy, excited, or playful. If you see this in her cage, this means that she needs to get out and run around (floor time.).
Depends on the Guinea Pig - also on the cage. I keep my guinea pigs in an open-bottomed cage.
No its not, i guinea pigs cage is way bigger. & you should not have the same size of guinea pig cage as your hampster.
How big of a cage do you have? Sometimes people think they have a big cage, but it's not big enough. Also do you have a friend for your guinea pig? That may be why she/he doesn't popcorn if they don't have a friend. How long have you had them? If you have only had them for a month or so, don't expect them to be happy right away. It will take them along time to get over the fright of moving. Just make sure you take really good care of them, and you will spy some popcorning soon.
My guinea pigs don't smell at all. And when I change their cage, I put a very light coating of Arm & Hammer Litter Box Deodorizer down right before I put in the bedding. It helps the cage stay very fresh smelling & the piggies seem to really love it! (They popcorn all over the place when we put them back into the cage after cleaning it!)
No. Just make sure that the guinea pig gets lots of attention and time every day to run around outside of it's cage in a safe environment
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!!!
For two guinea pigs you need at least 7.5 feet of cage.
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.
I try to clean my guinea pig's cage around once a week or when it looks dirty.
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
no guinea pigs are herd animals while hamsters need there privacy
