Question:

bedding FOR GUINEA PIGS?

can i use bond paper for bedding/

Answer:

Newspaper or cedar works well.
Newspaper is NOT toxic. They now use soy-based inks. Make sure that you always have a layer of newspaper underneath your bedding, so that when you clean their cgae you can just roll it up. This is a list of suitable cheap beddings for guinea pigs: Shredded newspaper Pine shavings Aspen shavings Cotton towels Yesterday' News (cat litter) Care Fresh Cell-Sorb Plus Woody Pet Polyester fleece Crown Animal Bedding Megazorb Eco Fresh This is a list of unsuitable beddings for guinea pigs: Cedar shavings Straw Corn cob bedding Wood Pellets Hay The bedding I use for my guinea pig is a layer of newspaper, then a layer of soft pine shavings. Best of luck to the lil fellow :)
i always used cheap fleece blankets, for bedding, my pigs loved them and they pay for themselves after the 1st wash.
With 30 years of caring for guinea pigs i have found the perfect bedding for guinea pigs that always keeps they dry and comfy. Place a layer of newspaper on the bottom of your cage. Put 2 of pine bedding on top of that and on top of the pine bedding pur 2 of Carefresh bedding. Change their potty spot every 2 to 3 days and the rest of the cage can go up to 2 weeks with one guinea pig. It is a great bedding, at 2 weeks when you roll out the newspaper out usually it has not even gotten damp. The newspaper rolls out taking the bedding with it making changing the cage a breeze. You might think it a bit expensive but it is not as it lasts so long and as i said they never get the slightest bit damp.
Different guinea pig owners will have many different favorite bedding's to one another. You just have to figure out the best bedding that works for you. Here is a list of all the bedding's that are suitable to use - * Aspen Shavings * Pine Shavings * Pine Pellets * Recycled paper products like care FRESH or Yesterday's News * Hay * Towels * EnviroTiles Bedding's that you should avoid are - * Straw * Cedar pine Shavings * Corncob Bedding * Newspaper Newspaper shouldn't be used as a bedding by itself, but underneath other bedding. As you can see from the list above, there are many possibilities of which bedding's to use and what's best for your time schedule and ways. Some bedding's will need cleaning out more often than others and some longer.
