Moving cages?

[Eva121]

Hi!

I have recently decided to expanded the guinea pigs cage, and am going to build their new cage in the next few days. I was just wondering if there is anything in particular I should do to make the guinea pigs transfer to their new cage more pleasant? Since, I dont know if they will like it or feel scared (?) in the new area?

Moving or expanding cages can set off territorial/dominance disputes so be prepared for that. It would be a good idea to use their used bedding in the new cage ie don’t put fresh bedding in, that way it will still smell of them and it can help with the transition.
