Hello fellow cavy slaves :) My name is Britni and I'm a 21 year old cavy enthusiast! I've been taking care of guinea pigs since I was eleven years old. Pixel is my current piggie- she is a 6.5 month old 7 week pregnant sow. Her pregnancy IS completely UNintentional- I have never had a pregnant guinea pig out of all the piggies my past 10 years. I do have an exotic vet literally right down the road that she sees for numerous checkups and weigh-ins; Pixel has been completely healthy for the past 5 months I have owned her, up to this very day. She lives in a 6x2 C&C cage; I have temporarily removed her upper level due to the pregnancy, and the rest of the cage is baby-proofed as well. I am planning on keeping at least three of the pups, and I have secure homes for up to 3 extra babies as well. That is everything that's going on with us right now- feel free to comment and ask questions!

I noticed you posted a picture on your Instagram 5wks ago with all three of your pigs together. 2 girls and 1 boy, right? You don't still put them together sometimes do you? If you do, your other girl will be next to get pregnant. Also don't have Henry anywhere near the babies or Pixel during or after the pregnancy. If one baby is a boy you can put him with Henry when he is three weeks old. You'll want to separate the babies at three weeks by gender or someone might get pregnant. Sorry to sound like a lawyer lol I just don't want any of your other sows to have to go through this too, and I know you don't either.
