Hi i have just got my piggies and one keeps sneezing could anyone help as to why he keeps sneezing
 
Which bedding do you use? Wood shavings cause guinea pigs to sneeze. Do you give her vitamin c each day? I buy tablets and crush them on a slice of cucumber to ensure my girls have enough vitamins.
 
Yes i use wood shavings and i have tried to give them a vitamic c tablet but they dont eat it or the food uts on and what bedding is good for guineas
 
Do they eat cucumber? Mine cannot even tell the vitamin c is on the cucumber and munch it happily. I use fleece bedding. Shavings are awful. They cause them to sneeze and they are such a mess. I put down a layer of towels and then two layers of fleece. I buy the fleece from Primark for three pounds. They also sell it in Ikea and large branches of Tesco. I would really suggest you change to fleece. You will have to wash it every three days but it keeps the piggies happy. :)
 
I havent tried them with cucumber but i will try and i will try some fleece i do use some sheets on the bottom of the cage thank you for the advice
 
Are your piggies indoors? I wouldn't use fleece if they are outdoors but its fine for indoor piggies xx
