Hey guys! I've been on this forum for awhile, but just now decided to do an introduction thread. 1) 'cause I officially got my two forever pigs and 2) I was lazy. lol
Anyhow, meet my two boars c: There exact ages are unknown.
(Newton is the white and brown piggie and Jupiter is the black spotted piggie.)
(sorry for the dark pictures!)

I'm currently in high school and live with my parents and siblings. I own these two cute guys and my dog, Sophie. These pigs are my first pets I will ever take full responsibility for. I've owned them for almost a month now. I would definitely recommend adopting from Critter Corral!
They are in a 2x3 c&c cage (in grids), but I'm still looking into expanding it to a 2x4.

Newton is bolder than his buddy Jupiter. He doesn't mind his head petted and always looks to see if I brought him anything to munch on! Jupiter is the more cautious and skittish one. He rarely lets me stroke his head, but I know he'll warm up to me eventually!
These two love their veggies, especially the cucumbers they get with their daily salad. When I move the slightest in my bed in the morning they always begin to let me know when they're hungry. It's very cute!

Everyday they get 2-3 hours of floor time in their +4x4 grid play pen, which provides them plenty of exercise. They love it!

So yeah, thanks for reading! Feel free to share your pictures, I'd love to see your guinea pigs. c:

They're adorable! I definitely recommend expanding their cage as soon as possible, a 2x3 is quite small for a pair, and even smaller for a pair of boys!

I LOVE their names, and they're such cuties!

These are my boars, Icarus and Hermes. They also are big fans of cucumbers and early breakfast. Definitely look into expanding the cage. Mine have had two cage expansions and go nuts after each upgrade.

Welcome and congrats. I'm trying hard not to be jealous of all of you with your happy boar pairs. I'm hoping I can get mine to live together soon. They all are so cute!!!
