I wonder if anyone else has this problem?
I gave bananas to my piggies ( boars) last night and when I came down in the morning, there was a very strong pooey smell in their cage, which was worse than normal. Is this a normal thing after giving a banana?
Also, I cleaned out their cage and washed their vetbed last night, could it maybe be they need to rescent the place, putting their familiar smell to it?
Any advice would be greatly recieved.
 
A) guinea pigs need to mark their territory and will "spoil" any freshly made up home immediately.

B) Banana should only be given very sparingly in small amounts; ideally only when they are having the runs, as can bung them up and is too sweet to feed regularly.
 
Most pigs like banana skin, whilst many sick pigs will eat the banana itself.
