    Pellets Took my pig off pellets, I hope I made the right decision.

    Okay so I made the decision to take my Cinna off pellets because he would extrude calcium in his urine like crazy and was leaving white spots on the fleece. Before we took him off the pellets we took away the veggies but that didn't help so we then thought it must be the pellets. So far I...

    Want a Guinea Pig(s) One guinea pig...

    I look at my pigs as my companions but I would never take that as good enough for them. They still do benefit from company of their own kind.

    Dominance Is mounting a normal behaviour for females

    Yea it's normal mounting is all about dominance behavior than sexual behavior. Males will mount males and females will mount females. But its fine if you want to check their genitalia just to make sure. It might at least help you put your mind at ease.

    Weight My guinea pig is fat!

    Usually guinea pigs aren't obese they're naturally chubby. I would weigh him with a kitchen scale.

    Want a Guinea Pig(s) One guinea pig...

    Yes he/she would benefit from a cage mate but if its not in your budget than don't cause that wouldn't be fare to you or the new pig if you can't properly care for another. But a good way to look at is taking the alian abduction approach. You take a guinea pig away from other guinea pigs and put...
