Hi everyone. My Guinea pigs love willow chews balls and I was wondering if the ones on Amazon labeled for parrots and cockatiels were ok. The package says 100percent willow but no mention of Guinea pigs or rabbits. Just birds . They seem cheaper that the usual ones I buy. I will put pictures below. I usually get the three pack.

If it were me, I would probably err on the side of caution due to the colouring.
 
The three pack that I usually buy has natural vegetable colouring as dye.The other ones I’m not sure about the colour though. Yeah the dye could be dangerous, but would they still have it marketed for birds if it was dangerous?

Birds tend to shred whereas piggies will sometimes ingest.

I would go for undyed ones as the piggies won't care about the colour.
My boy Eddi was an absolute manic destroyer of anything willow so I also used to bulk buy.
It is worth doing a search for things like chinchilla and rabbit toys too, as sometimes they were cheaper than the guinea pig version for the same thing.
