I was in the pet section at my local garden centre and it was selling fluffy 'nester' guinea pig bedding it felt like cotton wool and was pink,yellow,blue or white I was wondering if its safe to use in pigloo's as my two are outside and as both are about 5-7 weeks old they get cold easily and I am a bit of a worrier:red I didn't buy any but any advice thanks^)
 
I've never seen it myself-it sounds similar to hamster bedding?
I'd be worried it could choke a piggy if they decided to eat it, I could be wrong.

You could put some pieces of fleece in their pigloos to help keep them warm.
 
this stuff is incredibly dangerous for hamsters and it is not unusual for them to try to eat it and then suffer from internal blockages and die. Not all the time but I would steer clear of the stuff, You could always use shredded tissue paper or newspaper, or lots and lots of extra hay :))
 
Piggies that young should really be indoors :...
Can you have them inside until the warmer weather arrives...they are not old enough to be exposed to this changing climate we get :)
Even in a smaller cage whilst so small, anything is better than outdoors.
 
Yes they are in the garage at the moment! At ew sounds horrid I am thinking of making fleece snuggle sacks!
