Howdy. I have been doing dog rescue for about 6 years. I have been doing chinchilla rescue for about 1 year. Last week I was asked to take in some guinea pigs. My first reaction was "Sorry I can't". My husband is alergic to everyting except dogs and chins. But then I was told the piggies have very little hair so I thought I would give it a try. I love them. 2 girls about 8 weeks old. They do not have names yet but I am open to suggestions. At first I thought they were sick but their mom lookes the same way. They are like my Boston terrier, so ugly that they are cute!! I scored a barly used C&C cage off craigs list the day after I took them in and they love it. I have been doing tons of research and this forum by far is the most helpfull. They were housed with the dad and 2 brothers. Do I need to be on pregnancy watch. I am new to piggies so I am always open to suggestions. So here are some pictures of my girls. I hope you like them.:lovestruc
Thanks for the info rabbitsncavyluv. I am learning so much on this forum! I wasn't sure if they were skinnys or not because they do have some hair in spots. I will research the needs of skinnys. I love the info on veggies I have gotten from the site. My chins can eat very little "people food" so it is fun to have babies I can give veggies to. I will baby proof my cage and keep an eye out for pregnancy. I originally planned to make sure they were healthy and then adopt them out. But NO WAY. If my husbands alergies are okay I will keep them. They are so fun. I can't wait until they are used to me.
