Junior Guinea Pig
I purchased this hay rack expecting the guinea pigs to make good use of it, but they really don't seem interested. They pull the hay out of the rack and just spread it about and sit on it. Very occasionally they will use it as it should be used, but not often. For instance: I just noticed that there wasn't much hay in it (all spread around the bottom as usual) so I topped it up, but no interest was shown. I put the same hay on the floor of the hutch and they were on it in seconds, and still munching as I type. So I'm wondering if this is a peculiarity just to my piggies or do others behave in this manner.
I'm thinking that I'll try the hay rack for their vegetables to see if they will take them from it and just put the hay on the floor of the hutch. My one concern in all this is that they are not getting enough hay.
