    CoCo's Babies....

    Its seems strange to call them pups...so I will refer to them as babies. Well they all seem fine. I have had them out and tried to sex them and I am pretty sure they are all boys. I will have a look again in a couple days. I saw them eating hay today. They are pretty good about letting me pick them up...for a few seconds anyways. CoCo seems ok with it now more so then she did. I was able to put a temp cage next to theirs to house Puff. He is NOT happy to be separated from his wifey. But he can see her and they can touch noses.

    Left to right in the 1st & 2nd pic's are: Pebbles, Cotton and Pink.

    Then 3rd: Pink 4th: Pebbles and 5th: Cotton

    I thought they were born yesterday. Please keep them with mom until they are 21 days old.

    Edit to add: Oops! Sorry, I misread your post. So Puff is the dad? The pups are still with mom, right?

    Yeah puff is the dad. CoCo is mom. And I only take them out once per day to handle them. I dont want to upset CoCo too much.

    Re: CoCo's Babies....

    I had to look up Texel to see what you meant. Both Pink & Pebbles have very curly and rough feeling hair compared to Cotton (hence his name). I think CoCo is a Peruvian and dad I guess is just an American Short Hair? As they get older I will post more photos and perhaps someone can help me identify the sex and the breed?

    See Sexing Guinea Pigs: How to Sex a Guinea Pig for plenty of help on determining the gender.

    I would keep a girl if one actually turns out to be one...but I would have to adopt out all the males. I just dont want to have any more babies!

    Adorable babies, everyone! Are you planning on getting Puff nuetered?
    A suggestion: If they are indeed all boys, they could live with Puff and you could get CoCo a female friend. (That is if you want all those piggies. Just a thought)\

    Re: CoCo's Babies....

    We got our second piggy as a baby and we visited him once a week until he was 21 days. The mommy pig was so frustrated with the 3 crying babies sometimes that she would climb on top of the pigloo to get away from them... Haha! Once we brought him home he tried to suckle his new adult male friend who got so tired of him that he would nap with his butt in the pigloo doorway so the baby couldn't get in with him.. LOL! Babies are so fun, and ours was (and is!) SO loud! Enjoy them, they grow up so fast.
