Guinea pig playtime

Question
I just recently got a pair of male gunea pigs, and am very attached to them, however i cant spen das much time iwht them as i would like.  I was wondering what kinds of homemade toys i could make for them.  Right now i have a thick pipe they like to go in, and i put some balls in that they pay no attention to, im not sure what a guinea pig would think of as fun, but i dont want ym piggies to be bored.  Any advice would be great. Thanks for your help!

Answer
Hi Marie

First of all, you did the right thing in getting 2 piggies so they will entertain each other.

Tubes are also a good idea, as is anything they can run in and out of. They also like to nibble wooden objects so you should be able to get them some wood chews.

Other than that, they should be happy and contented for years to come.
