Is it normal for a baby guinea pig to eat his bedding?

if its beding is hay then yes it normal for any g-pig to eat hay But you should NOT use hay for bedding. Hay is to eat, you should use either aspen (NOT pine) or recycled paper bedding that you buy at the pet store. Improved: Actually, it is normal for guinea pigs to eat their bedding. I know that it is gross, but guinea pigs are supposed to eat their droppings because it gives them necessary nutrients that they don't have time to absorb the first time it goes through their bodies. Recycled paper bedding at the pet store is the best, and the best kind of hay is the KAYTEE brand Timothy hay. Hope that this helps!

What do pigs sleep on?

Guinea pigs are not nocturnal neither do they sleep at night always. They are most active at dawn and dusk. When you see a guinea pig laying or sitting still with their eyes open, they may be sleeping. Guinea pigs can sleep with their eyes open. I think they just take a lot of naps and can be awake and playing at almost any time if they are given enough resting time on the side.
