Star Hello, I'm a newby!

Hi there!

My name is Niki and I just became a new mommy to my GP Tanger. I don't know much about him, just that he is a boy. I live in Central FL with my husband Jeff, my dog Taylee and my four Sugar Gliders. I found Tanger thrashing around in my pond! Either someone lost him or let him go and he found his way into my backyard and fell in my pond. I scooped him out and then tried to find his owner(s). I put up posters and went knocking on doors for over an hour in my area, but no luck. This was on Wednesday and no one has claimed him yet. I am going to keep him, I've really grown fond of him! I have some questions, so I will go and make some posts now in the proper sections I am really looking forward to learning all I can about GP's.

-Niki-

Thanks for the welcome Yes, my dog and I were outside when we heard some thrashing going on in our pond. I thought one of the frogs was being attacked! When I went to go look, we saw Tanger! I was shocked! I immedietly got him out and dried him off. We think he was really thirsty and tried to get a drink and accidentally fell in, poor little guy.

Oh my, poor piggy. I'm glad you were their to rescue him. I would love to see a picture of him....if you can post some for us that would be great. What have you been feeding him? Piggies love eating fresh veggies and an occasional piece of fruit. Timothy Hay is very important for them to eat and they love it. Congratulations on your new piggy!

I'm very glad I was there too! He would have drowned for sure I have pics of him, I will post them I got Tanger some pellets (the kind that doesn't have any nuts or colorful stuff in it, I heard that was junk food) and I got him Timothy Hay, also some fruits and veggies (lettuce, carrots, cucumber, apple) He LOVES the apples the best. Now I just have to go see where I can post pics of him

I have no idea where he's from or how he got here, but I'm spoiling him rotten now

Re: Hello, I'm a newby!

Here is a fruit and veggie chart that I'm sure you will find helpful. It will give you an idea of all the different foods you can feed him and how often.
