Hello all! I live in Florida and we just bought my son a male G.P. in June. He was 6 months old from a pet store. After a bit MORE research I realized we needed to get Guinea (piggies name) a friend. I searched and searched and unless I wanted to go to a pet store.. I was not having any luck.
Finally, a G. P. rescue a county away had recovered 40 G.P.'s from a hoarder in the keys. She said she would only give them away in pairs. So I went up and picked out two brothers 5 weeks old. Well, there were 3 brothers total and when we took the two, the 3rd lil guy squeeked up! So we ended up taking all 3!
Our final G. P. count is 4! Hu, we only wanted two! But they are adorable and well carred for. My husband is a busy man and I am a stay at home mom. He does not seem much interested in the G. P. 's like my sons and I are. We dont have a lot of money and the C7C cages were way out of budget. So I decided to use a bunch of ventilated shelving for the structure. It is 22 x 43 I think. It was AWESOME for one G.P. but 3.....nu uh! Way too small! So I am trying to find some clever ideas for a nice set up. My hubby says NO way are we getting an almost 76" cage in our living room. Which is what is required for 4 piggies. So any advice wuld be awesome!
Thanks!
