No! The wood in pencils has bee treated with chemicals, and has fragments of graphite still on it, which could be toxic to your guinea pig (not to mention it will make them very dirty.)
Also the wood is too sharp and fragile to be good bedding. It can hurt their delicate feet and get in the eyes or throat.

What cage is best to use for guinea pigs?
Just get a big cage from a pet store that has little hiding places in it. Guinea pigs like to hide in small dark places. Rabbit cages would be okay to use too, but make sure you keep your guinea pig inside. Make sure that the bottom of the cage is smooth for the guinea pig. Wire at the bottom of the cage is too hard for it to walk on and painful. Also, get some shavings/bedding (little pieces of cut up wood or get it from a pet store) to line on the bottom of the cage that will make a comfy bed for your pet.

What should you do if you just got a guinea pig but you are too scared to put it in its cage in case something happens to it?
A guinea pig actually is safer in it's cage, provided that you have a good cage for it. It's far more likely to be hurt or get lost if it's out of it's cage. Also, the guinea pig wants to make a home and/or nest and wants bedding material, such as wood shavings. You need to ask the pet store people what would be good bedding material for your guinea pig.Get your guinea pig out of it's cage to play with it or just to hold it, but it needs to be in it's cage the rest of the time.Answerve it running round, someone is likely to step on it that would be far worse than putting it in its cage AnswerI just got a Guinea Pig yesterday. :) He's so sweet. (anyway, enough with my blathering!) A Guinea Pig is safer in it's cage! Even more so if you have another pet such as a cat or dog. A Guinea Pig would prefer it's cage, too. If you leave him in his carry-home box too long, he might get too scared and stressed out and get sick. The sooner you put him in his cage, the sooner he'll feel comfortable and the sooner you two can begin bonding! :) A cage is way more safe in the long run anyway! Goodluck! -GuineaBoo
