I have 2 wooden hidey houses in my cage.
They are getting smaller & smaller and I see no pieces or anything in the cage so I assume my piggies are eating the wood from them.. can this hurt them?

If they are consuming a lot, yes it can cause problems. I would remove the wooden hideys and replace them with something else.

Try harwood. I don't think they can eat that. My rabbits try, but it's too hard.
