Fabulous :lol:
Be like a duck. Calm on the surface but always paddling like the dickens underneath.

:lol: i should think so! :) might want a clip on light so it's out of the way or a partition so can't be pecked ;)

We have a bigger style guinea pig indoor cage and have planned it as a hospital 'wing' if i ever need one, and as a brooder if i need one. :) it has a clip on 'house' as a shelter that goes into it too. :)

No it's to keep them entertained, can't see the hole that they have to aim them into!  :wink:

What's the punchbag for?  Is that for them to work out and build up their muscles?  :shock:
Nobody said this was going to be easy ... but some days are better than others!

oh you guys are so funny  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

I've been reading up way too much on this one and the marbles ARE to stop them drowning but I think they look pretty now in any case!

The punch bag is actually rags because one of the books said it simulates their mum and they are supposed to like sitting under it.  It seemed a great idea but they keep eating it so I've had to take it out.

We're loving them though.  Talk about cuties.
