| Re: new guinea pig, very scared Hand feeding veggies seems to help a lot. Holding him to get him used to you will help too. I'm sure you don't want to scare him even more, but holding him is necessary. Apparently he hasn't had a very good start to his life. Just make him as comfortable as possible. It may take a little longer, but he should at least start coming out of his hidey. Once you get a bigger cage, maybe think about a friend. That tends to make them more active also. |
