I have read through all the posts here and many people have different views of course, I am surprised to read about the chippings, the pet shop actually sold us our cage with the chippings and now I am reading that it is bad for their health, I have been using it for 2 weeks now. Should I stop ?
I was told before we go the guinea pigs that the cage could be cleaned out every second day and to just put down newspapers and grass hay, but I clean mine every day, I wash it out and I layer it with newspaper about4 layers, I put the chippings in their sleeping area and where they go to the loo and I top iti up with lots of grass hay.
I find the cage smells so I always scrub it out, I hate the smell to be honest, I hope I am doing it right, maybe I should be doing more or using something different.
I wondered if anyone uses something different and finds it much better.
I am going through tons of grass hay, I am on my 3rd bag and they are quite large bags, I have the guinea pigs 2 weeks and a bag of the grass is €10.
