Re: Fighting, space issue, and now surprise!

I still have a half a sheet of coroplast to use so I can still buid another one. Hubby actually hates it and fights saying the coroplast is something temporary and it looks aweful built the way they are. I actually found it a bit harder to clean for some reason. But I have only had it for about 2 weeks, with Chessie so I am still working on it. I won't say this is an excuse. I love the idea on how you can build, and revamp a C&C cage, so I do hope that soon we will be moving into a house and I will be able to locate the piggies somewhere more roomy so I can build away!

I won't wait that long, I am sure we will be playing with him sooner than later and take a quick peak at the baby.

As for the food, most likely I will print out the pages to take them with me, so I won't forget while I am at the store. I have the food chart for them and follow it pretty well. They have constant hay, I refresh twice a day. They have their pellets. We buy a bag of romaine, just for them and give that to them on a constant basis. They get carrot, zuccini squash, cucumbers, some fruits on few occasions, controlled by the chart.

Question, are guinea pig babies usually this size? I saw a video of a gp birth and they seemed quite small. This baby is the size of a full grown hamster, maybe even slightly more. We were very surprised to see him so big, nice black hair with streaks of brown, large beady black eyes. I am soo excited, makes me want to go home to stare at him all day! It came to us as a shock since both Chessie and Cookie are mainly white with some color patches around the eyes and ears, nothing more. I hope to post some pictures as soon as I can.
