Hi all.
Is it ok to use dust extracted Oil seed rape shavings as bedding for my two Guinea pig's? And is it ok for them to eat it? Thank you for any advice.

So long as they haven't been treated with anything they should be fine to use as a substrate. I used them briefly a couple of years ago when my regular shavings were unavailable. They are not a food tho and I never noticed my piggies eating any.
 
I used them for a while but they used to put splinters in my fingers so I stopped using them. I think my pigs did have a nibble at the start be didn’t continue eating it.
 
It has not been treated. Had to get them cos my usual shavings are not available and will not be for awhile. Hoping it will be a suitable replacement.
