Platform With Or Without Connection To The Ground

[Somboun]

Hello, so firstly sorry, english is not my native language. So i have a cage and i put 2 wood planks on the side to make hiding spots for my guinea pigs. The thing is that i never put a little bridge for them to go from the ground to the platform (i dont have this model but like in the cage in the photo) so basically they jump everytime they want to get on one of them, they like to chill, look around their cage and sleep on the platforms. The platforms are about 15 cm off the ground. I wanted to know, is it bad for them?

Thank you very much

hello!
the cage of the picture is too little for even one piggie... I hope yours is far larger than this one...
If the platform is only 15cm from the ground, you don't need any bridge. 15cm is just the height of the Ikea dolls bed I have into the cage (other members have these beds, for example @flowerfairy )
My three piggies jump up and down without any effort it is a good exercise for them

Yeah all my young guinea pigs can easily get on to the ikea dolls beds.

@Somboun 15cm is fine. I have a stool in my cage and one of the boys loves to jump on and off it. He sits up there quite a lot.
