Weighing my Pigs.

I just bought a weighing scale today and I weighed all my piggies. Now my question is how often do I have to weigh them? Also is there somewhere where I can see what is the average weight for the guineapigs around the age area? Thanks.

Re: Weighing my Pigs.

I weigh my pigs weekly, as most of us do unless we suspect there is a problem with the pigs not eating. Be sure to keep a record.

As for the someplace where you can see what the average weight is for the age of the guinea pig, I am not sure. I do know I seen one on sows on guinealynx someplace, but not sure exactly where.

I weigh mine weekly, as well.

I also use this for conversions of any kind:

It's so cool because it's interactive. In other words, you enter the value you know and it calculates it into the value you desire.

Hope that helps!
