Answer
Hi Michelle

Guinea pigs are generally lazy. Also, if they are in an open space such as in the middle of your living room its quite common that they are scared so freeze to the spot.

Dont concern yourself too much about getting Rose and Lucy to run around a lot, just give them plenty of attention and love and I'm sure they will be fine.
