I have six Guinea Pigs, I house them on fleece indoors. My two 6 month old boars live in a 5ft x 2ft hutch and my 3 and 2 month old boars are paired up together above them in a 4ft x 2ft cage.
My 2 Sow Sisters live in a 4ft x 2ft cage in my living room but in the daytime I put all pigs in C&C play pans to have a big run around in my living room.
I provide a varied diet and feed all pigs in the morning and in the evening. They have three daily veggies 1 twice weekly veggie and 1 weekly veggie per serving and they are thrieving on it. I provide hay as a constant supply as well as nuggets as a couple of my darling where select feeding.
I am new to
cavies, but my love and respect for them grows by the day and I want to start a rescue in the Liverpool area, there is a need for one here, we have two on the outskirts but not one in Liverpool itself.
I am also a student and did want to go to university in 2009, but I am now torn between my idea of a Rescue or achieving my personal goals. I suppose I can do both as they are equally important but time will tell which way it will go.
I would also like to go into schools with my pigs and educate children on basic care, if we start young then they will understand their needs. I plan on starting this in the spring in my daughters school.
