Can squirrels and guinea pigs live together?

Answer 1

Depends on how big an area you have to house them and also on the temperament of the chicken breed.

If you have enough room and everyone gets along it can be a mutually beneficial relationship as guinea pigs will clean up any left over pellets and scraps (remember no potato!) and that will keep the mice, and therefore the snakes away.

If you are going to attempt this it must be done gradually to guage the resposes of both the chickens and the guinea pigs. introduce them through a fence for afew days, then let them out for a very short time each day and gradually lengthen, eventually letting the guinea pigs roam free.

I would reccomed having a separate small house/box/cubby (not under the chook roosts as they will be pooped on!) for the guinea pigs with a door that is too small for chickens to get in so that they have a place to escape to if they need it and also secure for sleeping.

Be especially careful of mother hens as they can kill small animals in 'defence' of their chicks.

Good Luck

Answer 2

Yes they can. My rabbit lived my guinea pig for a while but then we had to separate them as it is known that sometimes rabbits can bully guinea pigs a bit. I would strongly recommend two separate hutches. Two floors for a rabbit as they like lots of space and a single floored hutch for a guinea pig (though you can fit two in it!)

Answer 3

Not in the same cage, they will start to fight and hurt each other. The best thing to do just to be safe is to keep them in different cages, ducks in one cage, guinea pigs in the other. You might be able to put them together once in a while, but dont leave them alone without SOMEBODY in the room.

Answer 4

They can live together unless the start to fight. p.s people when a guinea pig CHATTERS it REALLY means that your guinea pig really loves what you or whatever is doing. read the guinea pig care book people. my guinea pig is half a year old now she is a female. and is ALL black which is pretty surprising because her parents are multiple colors_:D_Have fun with your guinea pigz!

Answer 5

No, not in the same cage because hamsters are territorial.
