I've posted a few times since we saw our piggies on Craigslist, but this is the first time I've posted since we picked them up on Thursday!! They were soo terrified when we first got them. They have slowly gotten more acclimated and friendly, and have perked up a LOT since we brought home the second igloo! (they had one and a tunnel, but I think the new C&C cage felt too big for them so they were less comfortable with less places to hide)

We are hoping they will continue to acclimate to us and settle in! They are adorable and so much fun to watch, and we can't wait to put their fleece flippers in and see how they like them!! We will take pictures once the fleece is in :)

Also, we decided to keep their current names, Bella and Ginger :) They get along pretty well although Bella has proven to be the dominant one, and sometimes she kicks Ginger out of whatever igloo she wants at the moment, causing some squealing and rumblestrutting occasionally... we will keep an eye on it but they get along the majority of the time. I think this is normal...

Ginger(the orange and black one) looks just like @GuineaGal2013 B'Lanna.

Are they your only two or are you adding them to others later?

They are our only two at the moment.The first piggies we've had! I had one a looong time ago but I still consider myself a newbie. When we end up moving out, it may be fun to add another and expand our cage, but it's just the two of them for now.

I understand that. I(we) had some as kids but never as adults. Grats on your babies, they are very cute.
