I feel like a bad pig mum. The boys don't really have any toys. They have 2 wooden huts which they constantly chew and lie on and a tube. They pretty much ignore anything else that isn't food related.
What piggies toys do yours have, and actually use?
 
The girls have - 1x hay bag, 1x hay pillow, different texture balls and a tunnel
Rory has - 1x hay bag, 1x hay pillow and a tunnel.

I don't tend to buy loads of wooden stuff for them because they just get peed on.
Will be making homemade toys :P
 
My piggies mainly just have tunnels - they love tunnels. I also bought a little ball thing for Nellie&Elma because they were barbering Nelson's hair so we thought we'd see if it was boredom first of all (it wasn't). And I have a little wooden chew ball thing, but none of the pigs are that interested! They just like their tunnels.
 
They have a hay ball, cardboard castle and a massive tube plus extra boxes for floor time - all a bit big for their cage. Will try the toilet paper tube idea!
 
Mine pretty much just have tunnels - especially in their temporary smaller cage. Any other toys just get ignored and so I've stopped wasting my money on them! They do like the occasional willow toy to chew on - willow tunnels are usually a hit!
 
Mine have a ball with a bell in it ( someone on here mentioned them so we got one) Edward likes to wait until the early hours of the morning before he starts kicking it around for what seems hours and hours:cen::lol!: They also love kitchen roll tubes with hay.
 
Yeah I have tons of balls with bells was prob me sorry :inn:

mine also get homemade toys. Paper bags stuffed with hay,in kitchen roll tubes stuffed with hay and I treat them to their veggies on paper plates now and then and sometimes those cardboard dessert / icecream tubs you buy for parties with veg or herbs in. They seem to like throwung them about and nibbling them.

Someone else on here mentioned egg boxes as toys I used to tear them up as bedding but Iive saved some up and going to make games out of them.

Today I got a giant plastic egg from tesco filled with plastic eggs that come In half Gonna try these with treats In too. It was only 1.50 and must have about 30 eggs in:dri:
 
Ryou and Sakurai have a little ball with a bell in it they push around. Toilet roll tube, big chube, they did have balls but they're now in pieces after being chewed. And an easter egg box.

The boys up above them have the same except instead of a ball with a bell they have a basket for hay that they can chew on and Romano has a bunny house that he likes sleeping in.
 
My two like anything tunnel like and that they can go in, but they arent really that interested in toys as such. My mum made them some things out of fleece that they can run through, like a fly screen if you will, they like those. My mums pig has loads of toys of all kinds and plays with every single one of them!
 
Mine have toilet rolls stuffed with hay...a couple of willow balls and squares but to be honest they do not bother with those! I stuff hay into anything cardboard that they can forage.tug and chew on.
 
Mine have cardboard boxes that i cut little doors into, loo roll tubes stuffed with hay that I tie to the top bars of the cage (keeps them amused for hours :D ), a plastic pigloo, plastic tunnels, and a ball with a bell in (Teddy enjoys picking this up and flinging it at Sparky lol)
 
I have an endless list of toys lol they dont use all of the though. they have a ball with treats inside (but they dont eat the treats...), hanging metal ball with a bell to put veg in, wooden tunnels, chubes, other tunnels that I use on on the floor as they are too big for the cage, wooden hidey huts that they jump on top of and chew. I do find anything that they can chew is probably the best toy as mine will chew anything and everything lol
 
sparky loves to throw weather cones round his cage he always seems to get it to land in his food dish no matter were he is in his cage I'm sure he thinks he is playing rugby
 
My guinea pigs have a few toys, but the only things they actually pay attention to are their tunnels, beds and homemade toys. The best things to give your piggies are lots of cuddly beds, fleece tunnels and cuddle sacks, homemade toilet roll tube toys, interactive treat toys, tunnels (cardboard and fiddlesticks bridges) and a big litter box full of hay for them to burrow in :)
