Ok me and mum went to this guinea pig breeders house.
AND I WAS HORRIFIED
They were livng outside (I have nothing against that) but there wasnt any grass there was just a few weeds and some mud on the ground.
Then the lady showed me some of her young ones. Then I saw about 5 babies (all females thankfully) crammed together in a hutch about 4ft tall 2ft wide and 3.5ft in lenght. And they only had pellets and the bowl was nowhere near half full and there were NO VEGETABLES.
Is this acceptable.
And then the lady told me that she changed the mother's diet and it lacked Vitamin B and then the baies either had bald patcheds under their eyes or on their stomach. They weren't big but were noticable. My heart went out to a small black guinea pig and therefore I bought her off the lady and took home where I feed her fresh vegetables and dry food everyday I even give her the occasional saucer of oats and I have noticed an increaser in her weight and her fur is alot glossier.
