Has anyone tried putting an electric heating pad or blanket underneath the fleece bedding in the cage. Does anyone know if that is safe and if it is if the heating would even penetrate through the fleece?

How cold does it get in their room? Guinea pigs generally do better in cooler temperatures than in warmer one.

You've already started a thread on the temperature of your pigs. Please don't start multiple threads on the same topic. The people who regularly read the forums read all the new posts, so there's no need for duplicates.

I'm closing this thread.
