New to the forum and new to cavies!

Hi all! I am new to this forum and pretty new to owning guinea pigs. I've had my boar, Rufio, for about a month and I just recently got a sow, Duela, 2 weeks ago. So far I think I'm doing well but I'll still probably need some help. So you may see some future posts from me asking for more info and experience. lol

And I just want to express how in love with these little piggies I am. I rescued both of them and am so happy I did that instead of buying from a pet store.

I have a c & c cage that is fleece lined which seems to be working a lot better than that carefresh bedding.

I look forward to talking with all of you!

Hi and welcome to the forum. Would love to see pigtures.

Hi and welcome one question is one of them spayed/neutered or are they on separate cages?

Hello ad welcome to the forum! Great name choices, really original and pretty sounding

I'm just curious, have you had either of them 'fixed' or are they living separately until you can do so? If so, I suggest having Rufio neutered as opposed to spaying Duela. The neuter procedure is much more common, less invasive and less risky than the spay.

When I adopted the sow she was already spayed.
