    Sexing Help sexing new guinea pig?

    No, they do not live together or even in the same room. That's why we did not mind the gender for this pig. We got this one from a small time hobby breeder, she told me she was fairly certain on the gender and since we weren't caging them together, it didn't matter to me if she was right or not...

    Hello, I'm new. :)

    Hi! I'm Amanda. A brand new guinea pig mom. Well, grandmother I suppose. Technically our new girl belongs to my 10 year old daughter, but seeing as children can't be financially responsible for pets...I guess she is just as much mine. :) We just got her yesterday and she is so sweet. She is our...
