Junior Guinea Pig
so I’ve had my guinea pigs about 3-4 weeks now and they’re still so scared. They'll come and take veggies out of my hand but the slightest noise or movement and they’re straight to their hides. Plus if they’re not hungry, they stay to the back of the cage or hide when I’m there.
They’re in the shed so I go out to feed them and have also been spending time out their so they get used to me but they’re still so frightened.
I’m wondering if bringing them into the house will help? Like into a room that I’m mostly might help as they’ll be hearing me all the time (not being loud just general moving around etc) and might make them less afraid.
Does anyone think this would help? Or should I carry on as I’m doing?
I know bonding takes time and I’m ok with that. I just want to do it the best way for them.
Thanks.
