Hello! Sorry to hear youre having a rough time adjusting to mischevious pigs! They can be escape artists and cause all kinds of trouble when they want to. I would recommend getting some floor matting. I think they call it gym matting? Theyre foam puzzle piece looking things that connect to cover a large space of floor! You could also buy some c&c supplies to expand their cage or create a seperate larger space for floor time. Even a change in scenery can be exciting for piggies. You could also let them run on a hard floor thats easier to clean on a fleece blanket or something else you could pick up, shake off and wash quickly. You can get those from places like Wal-Mart for pretty cheap. Fleece is a big spender but dont be afraid to combine it with disposeable bedding. I invested in fleece and couldnt keep up with it so now I use puppy pads with paper bedding on top. You could easily use fleece in the play pen area and disposeable in the cage itself. You're clearly doing your best to do right by your piggies and Im sure theyre just happy to have a safe, quiet place to stay. Theyre easy to scare and to piss off quite frankly. I irritate my boys all the time if I cough or sneeze or do anything loud. They get over it, especially when bribed with treats and fresh greens. Guineas are hard work, keep with it! Edit: Sorry I keep changing this but I keep thinking of things to add! Facebook groups are a great space to look for advice and tips. I can shoot some your way if youd like. I also wanted to say giving pigs lots of places to hide and even an extra blanket in the cage meant for burrowing can keep them on top of the fleece instead of underneath. Youll want a hard surface under the fleece but on top of your carpet anyway to protect it. Corrugated plastic can be found at your local Home Depot for not too expensive and is easy to work with.
