My baby guinea pigs are almost 6 weeks old, and weigh almost 1 pound. At what point can I take the 10 inch high cardboard out of the cage? That is what I used to baby proof the cage! I am so tired of hearing the piggies playing and not being able to watch them from the other room! Just don't want to do it to soon! I want to be safe!       |

I am not totally sure abou this, but, I would keep it up until they are about 6 months old! I am not completley sure, but that is what I think. Maybe you could gradually decrease it, and see how it goes! |

How high are your corflute sides? I think this would be one of the determining factors. I have 1 side that is 16cm/6" tall, and all of the rest are 20cm/8" tall. There is no way baby pigs could escape with walls this high (I dont think! I havent ever had baby pigs before!). I know of people who have waited 6 months and one who waited until they were a year! If you are 100% confident that the bubs are safe in their cage without the cardboard, then go for it. |
