What's the ideal temperature for piggies? I keep my house between 70 and 75° F in the Summer. In the Winter, I try not to let it dip below 66 or so. It has been very humid here recently, but thankfully with air conditioning the humidity in the house has not gone above 50%. Does this sound good? Thanks!
 
Sorry didn't really answer you question 🤣
Ideal temperature range is about 18-22°C (64.4-71.6°F), according to Guinea Pigs Australia, and it should not go below 15°C (59°F) or above 30°C (86°F). The again, this may be different in the US as I live in Australia and temperatures tend to be very high in summer.
 
Thanks for the info! It's been on my mind lately because we just got out of a heat wave where the heat index was reaching 104° F outside. My asthma wouldn't allow me to go outside much recently due to the high humidity, but I'm blessed to have several AC window units that can keep the house comfortable, thank goodness. Thanks again!
