We're in the process of buying a new house and are planning on repainting but I'm worried about the fumes and our piggys. With our schedules we'll only be able to do one room at a time so I was planning on painting the room the pigs will eventually be liveing in first and keeping them in a room...

Our two new girls are texels I was looking around at info on how to best care for there hair and read that its better to give them some kind of compressed hay cubes instead of loose hay so it doesnt get tangled in there hair anyone know anything about those? I would hate to stop giveing them...

I was looking thru some pics of my piglets and found these of Monkey and it really made me smile see'ing how much he's grown in the past year, just thought you guys might enjoy them also. Oh and thats the same purple bin feeder in the first and last two pics he's standing by, poor guy had to...

Its almost time for our two new girls to move up to the big house and get out of quarantine but I noticed they had been scratching alot so while I was doing lap time today I gave there skin a look over and they have lice. Tiny little pale yellow bugs thank god one of the girls has a black spot...

We've gone thru countless toys and they always end up getting ignored but I saw these chew stick things that go on the superpet kabob and thought I'd give them a try. Our pigs are loveing them, and its really funny to watch them trying to catch it to chew on it since its hanging up and swings...

My cage is a 2x6 c&c with a 1x2 loft, right now we have three pigs, but I've been thinking about adopting one more little girl. I know 2x6 isn't all that much for 4 pigs so any opinions would great. In our current house there really isnt any room to expand there cage anymore width or length wise...

One of my girls is not a people pig... at all! She doesnt like to be touched, squirms like mad when we have lap time, and wont come out to play at floortime if I'm in there pen with them. I've had her for quite some time now and was beginning to think she just didnt like me. Today she got me all...

Just ran across this little "gem" on youtube..... Can't help but wonder how many miserable animals /dead animals are out there thanks to this woman and her ever so helpfull store. :weepy: Apparently giveing irresponsible and dangerous advice on how to take care of a helpless animal doesnt count...

Monkey is all healed up from his neuter and has joined the girls in the big house he's very happy to have his own little harem. Bubbles has calmed down a ton and is getting along wonderfully they all run around like a happy little family with only the occasional squabbles, so I thought it was...

I noticed some white powdery looking stuff on both my pigs bums today from what I've been able to find i'm pretty sure its excess calcium but I'm not really sure what I should change to fix it. This is what I feed them..... - Oxbow Cavy Performance (both still under 6months) - Unlimited...

So the last I posted we had just found out our little Lucy (renamed Monkey since lucy was a bit to girly) was a boy and I was freaking out that he had gotten his sister pregnant. Happy to report he got nuetered today and is now back home set up in his little hospital cage and the best news...

How fast should young pigs put on weight? Both our little ones seem happy and are very active, eat/drink/poop constantly. They're about to hit 3months old and have been gainning about 1oz a week does that sound right? The male is 12oz and the female is 13oz.

I got one of those child's step stools I keep see'ing people say they use as a hidey house and I love how open it is, the piggers seem to really like it also but Twiggy is chewing on it. It's from walmart by rubbermaid I've seen a few pics of people useing them do your guys pigs not chew on them...

I know I shouldn't of gotten the "girls" from a pet store but I saw them and fell in love and just couldn't leave them in that tiny crowded cage, apparently that wasn't my only mistake tho I also trusted that the pet store guy knew what he was doing when he checked there sex.... After...

Other then the mite problems our little furballs seem to have settled in pretty well so I snuck some pictures while they were playing! (LEFT) Our fearless little goofball Lucy popcorns around like its easier then running and lets everyone in a 5mile radius know when its time for...

I'm pretty sure our little girls have mites one has been scratching quite a bit and they came from a pet store. There isnt any hairloss and there both eating, drinking, and poop'ing fine but I noticed what looks like dandruff by the ears. At first I figured it was just from the gross bedding...
