Answer #1

yes guinea pigs do make good pets I’ve had heaps of them in the past and have a few more now, around 20 they relatively easy to keep and take care of, like little rabbits really they need a place to be warm and dry at night so make sure theres a bit of room for them to run around in the day, and a smaller compartment for them to sleep at night (a place thats dark) like a box with a hole in it…but wooden get them a hutch, and put hay in it they have a vegetarian diet so things like carrots, grass, lettuce, ect watch out for toxic plants though dont feed them tomato or potatoe plants and get them a water dish, and a few braches are good to chew on, ones from fruit trees like plums, apples, ect

Answer #2

yes, they are very fun. Same as with hamsters and rats and gerbils, just bigger…lol

Answer #3
