What’s your favorite guinea pig toy?

Mine love a toilet paper role toy which I have cut up into little rings, placed together in a ball shape, and stuffed with orchard grass and pea flakes. I watch them during floor time when they play with this toy. It’s very cute to see them try to get the treat.
 
I have tried every variety, material and size out there and the only toy I have found pigs are actually interested in and use is the big willow/seagrass balls
 
Toilet roll inners, a few of my piggies have liked to pick them up and throw them as well as chew them.
 
Toilet roll tubes remain untouched - makes no difference what hay I use to stuff them. Even cardboard boxes last longer now. Bert loves his carrot house although he now needs a ramp to get on top. For Hutchie it’s a huge pile of hay.
 
Most of the time all you can see in my piggies hay pile is a small tunnel into it. I promise there is piggies in there! But occasionally you can see they've made themselves a little 'nest'. Here is Nancy in her nest.

My two have never climbed on top of carrot houses. They will stand on their hind legs to get bits round the outside but not jump
 
Mine love a massive pile of hay, a cardboard box filled with hay, a paper bag filled with hay 😂

I've bought all kinds of commercial toys for then and they all get ignored with the exception of carrot cottages and willow tubes.
