I have had a guinea pig in the past (like over 10 years ago) and have decided to get another one now that I have a family. We have several kids and am hoping a guinea pig will be a good pet to have.
We were given 3 options to get one today but Im kind of on the fence and looking for opinions.
1. 1 Male piggy. he comes with a cage but I have a feeling it will be too small from everything Ive been researching. plus he was with his sister and they just got separated so I have a feeling he will be very lonely and need a friend soon. but he is free. the lady doesnt seem super knowledgeable as she is just rehoming him for a friend.so id have to make a big cage myself/
2 &3 are from the same house. they were a set of 4 females and the woman will not split them up less than pairs since they were bonded. She has already given me plenty of info on all of the types and their diet.
2 of them would cost me $25 (with no cage) however if I take all 4 for $50 I get them plus a 3X6 C&C cage...
my hubby will be kind of shocked if i come home with more than one but id rather get them together for the investment aspect.
any opinions?
I am prepping my fleece now and have found plenty of towels for their bedding already. I am super excited for this.
