I got a pack of straw out of curiosity the other week, and put a nice thick layer of it on top of my piggies bedding.
They were munching away happily and seemed to love it! Now I was just wondering how is it from a health point of view, obviously I was still giving them hay in a hayrack, but could one just swap the two?
How good is straw for guinea pigs? Or is it just something that tastes nice to them and thats about it?
//EDIT: could a mod please move this into the food area? I dont know why I posted this in housing O_o
