Be sure to give your pig lots of things to chew. Their teeth grow continually, so they need to keep them trimmed down. Apple wood (and some other woods) and other chewing items like large rocks and cardboard (non colored) are good chewing outlets. I recently found a chew stone at the grocery store made of a hard gray rock. Seems it was pumice, but I can't remember for sure. Anyway, it was affordable and both my hamster and rabbit love taking turns with it.

They like to chew, because they are bord. Put in a toy for the pet to chew on. I have a hamster and I cant have one of the little houses in there, because she eats the plastic. I guse its normal for them to do the chewing. If it bothers you take it out or just live with it. I took out the house, because the hamster would try to ex cape with it in there, and the chewing was driving me crazy.

This is normal. Guinea pigs chew to keep their teeth short. It's good for them. Just be careful not to let it chew on hazardous stuff.

That is normal. They do that when they are comfortable. You want to make sure that your guinea not only has food 24/7 but hay and oranges as well.
