Hello! I am a first-time piggy owner, and adopted my two female piggies on Sunday. I've been wanting a piggy for years, and my parents finally agreed to let me get them! Currently, they live in a 'pet store' cage, but when I am making more money, I am going to be building them a wonderful C&C cage! I have everything for fleece bedding, except the underbedding, which I will hopefully be getting tomorrow! So, here are my piggies!
Meet Reeses! She's about 1.5 years old, and is an American Crested, or so my friend @Tablo, who has has an American Crested of her own, has said.
[Ignore my mug! 
]
And this is Marshmallow! She is about 7 months old now, and I'm not quite sure what type of piggy she is. I just know she's adorable! She's quite the nibbler.
And this is the two sweethearts together! This was the sunday, the same day I brought them home, so they were nervous
They get lots of attention, and love, in their new home. I can't wait until I can get, and build, them a proper cage. Mallow has a slight case of the sniffles, it apepars, though. I don't know if it was because of the fact that the home that was fostering her was not feeding her the right stuff, or what, but I'm keeping an eye on it, and will take action if needed. They LOOOVE romaine lettuce, and have each eaten one slice of green bell pepper, yesterday, but so far, they don't like cherry tomatoes, red peppers, or oranges. I'll be trying celery tonight, and buying some carrots tomorrow!
Edit: I'm a little worried about Mallow, because of the sniffles, and because she REFUSES to take her Vitamin Supplement. I was thinking of getting drops for her, and feeding them directly to her, instead of mixing them with water, since Reeses is eating her supplement with no problem, and don't want to give her too much. Any suggestions?
