Re: exercise ball?

Yes, guinea pigs are long and those can hurt their back severly.

Re: exercise ball?

Yes,they can cause them pain and severe injury.These type of toys are not good for cavies at all,they aren't recommended for them because of these reasons.These are best for Hamsters,Gerbils,Mice and Chinchillas.They should never ever be used for piggies,most piggies don't even have any interest in these toys anyway.Please don't buy these for your piggies.

Re: exercise ball?

You said yourself that they are not recommended, so why are you thinking of buying one!
