Daily guinea pig routine winter 2015

Hi readers, It has been ages since I did a daily guinea pig routine so I decided I would do one today.

My guinea pigs have a pretty well set routine which means they get to expect things at different times of the day.

Between 08:00 and 09:00 they get their first lot of veggies and fresh pellets if they need them and they get to go out in their hutch and/or run depending on the weather. If the weather isn't nice I just leave the light on in the garage.

Around 11:00 or 12:00 I go out and check them and top up pellets and hay and have cuddles.

Normally if they are out I put them away around 16:00 and do more top ups.

Once a week I fully clean out their hutch and their cage in the garage. I also only put fresh water in their water bottles once a week because they don't drink that much.
Sometimes they will get more veggies around midday if they have eaten all their breakfast.

I hope you like this post,

Book Worm:)

The hutch facts H utches are normally small with no room for guinea pigs to run around once they've got a food dish and few toys. Some hutches are large and spacious and have a run attached(like mine). You can build hutches and this is a good option as it can be cheaper but can be a lot of hard work. C and C cage facts C & C cages are brilliant indoor options and can be suited to the space in the home or outbuilding. C&C stands for cube grids and coraplast. Cube grids can be expensive but don't really need replacing after you've got them. Coraplast or Correx is corrugated plastic ...
