Larkspurs Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Welcome to the forums We have placed a brussel sprout stem and and a Tumble N Treat Ball (for rabbits and Guinea Pigs) which we fill with a few mealworms which they both enjoy.

Mazzarina Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Mine like standing on things and then hopping off them, so a log might go down well. I also have a large ceramic flowerpot filled with compost and play-sand, which is meant to be a dust-bath. They use it as a look-out post and excavation area instead: Bertha spends half of her day upside-down in it, eating the sand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
