My name is Joanne and we live in New Brunswick, Canada. We lost one of our Bearded Dragons on Saturday. It was so unexpected, I had her to the vet on Friday and everything checked out great, but Saturday she passed away. My daughter is heartbroken. I was going to get her another dragon, but she decided the best way to ease her pain was to get not one, but two Guinea Pigs. We didn't start out with two. We bought one and then I read that it's better for them to be at least in pairs. So, off to town we went again in search of the other Guinea Pig's sister. When we picked up the sister, the first guinea pig got so excited seeing her sister she peed in the box. Had to get that cleaned up. lol Next, they snuggled up to one another. I think they are so happy being together and since they are litter mates the bond will be stronger.
The girls are really small. I don't think they are any older than 4-6 weeks. I have no idea how old they are when they are shipped to the pet store. I do know that they had just arrived. They are both dark chocolate brown and white. Sweet little angels. We named them Coco and Juliet. My daughter who will be 17 next month is in love with them. She has them in her room and they sit with her and watch tv or snooze. Because they are so young, I am hoping I will be able to litter train them. Just letting them get settled for a few days and then I will work on slowly trying to get them trained.
I don't think my daughter realized just how noisy guineas can be at night. She said she could hear them up and playing and whistling and chirping to one another all night long. At least they are happy.
Looking forward to getting a harness for them so we can take them out in our yard this summer. I am going to build them a big cage too. What kind of cages does everyone use?
Glad to be a part of this groupl
