What else can I help you with?
Your guinea pig has a wood to chew on but he doesn't chew itwhat's wrong?
He's probably just fine I wouldn't imagine anything is wrong with him. He'll probably use it eventually. If not, maybe try using other objects like empty toilet paper rolls. I used that for my guinea pig.

Chewing toilet paper might be more common among pets, such as dogs or cats, who are curious and sometimes chew on unusual items. In rare cases, certain individuals with pica, a condition that drives people to eat non-food items, might also chew toilet paper. Additionally, young children sometimes explore their environment by putting non-food items in their mouths. Overall, it’s not typical behavior for humans and is generally discouraged.

What happens if a hamster eats a toilet roll?
Yes, they can. Guinea pigs, like a lot of other rodents, like chewing on cardboard, paper, etc. However you be careful the first few times you give paper to your piggie. Some guinea pigs simply chew the paper while others try to eat it, which can affect their digestion. If your pet eats paper it should be given some other kind of chew toy. In any case chewing is extremely important for rodents because their teeth are always growing.

How much are gerbils supposed to chew?
There is no set amount of time that gerbils need to chew but they do have to have chew toys available all the time otherwise there teeth will grow too much. They should have a variety of chew toys. You can buy shop chew toys made out of wood usually or you can use things around the house like paper (not newspaper) loo roll tubes and toilet paper. You can also use branches of wood like fruit tree branches but nothing with thrones. Make sure there is always something to chew on because gerbils can totally chew up a loo roll within hours.
