Cork tunnels not only provide a hiding place, but also give the animals the opportunity to climb a bit. A cork tunnel is a nice hiding place for guinea pigs, rabbits and chinchillas. Guinea pigs especially like to walk through tunnels!

Are the nails cared for by the cork tunnel?

Thanks to the whimsical shapes of the cork tunnel, the nails are indeed carefully cared for when the animals clamber over them. However, the cork tunnel has no abrasive properties, it is more like a small pedicure.

How can I set up the cork tunnel in a challenging way?

We believe that the cork tunnel can also be used as a form of challenge for the animals. Thanks to the irregular shape of the bark, Chinchillas and Degus can get a good grip on it. For example, place the tunnel for these animals at a slight angle to a higher floor or use the tunnel as a form of bridge from one part to the other.

Can you hide snacks in the bark of the cork tunnel?

Yes! We have discovered that the cork tunnel can be used as a great snack hiding place. Simply place a treat between the jagged cracks of the bark and let the animals search for it and then try to get to it. What a great activity! Just like in the wild!

Is the cork tunnel big enough to walk through?

The inner diameter of these cork tunnels is around 30 cm. For guinea pigs, smaller rabbits, chinchillas and degus this is a great diameter, but for the slightly larger rabbits it can get a bit tight. The tunnel is too big for small rodents such as Mice, Dwarf Hamsters, Hamsters and Gerbils.

The bark is not factory made, but comes from the cork tree. The bark is removed from the tree with all its natural elements intact, such as moss, natural fungi, roots, twigs, leaves, etc. These natural elements can easily be brushed off the bark.
