Hi!
Newbie to this forum, though not owning guinea pigs! Had various guinea pigs over the last 14 or so years, and have owned Radish and Chutney (current boars) for 4 years. They're both loved on daily. Radish is a wriggly little love bug of a Himi, and Chutney is a chunky, nervous chocolate&orange smooth-haired.
I'd always said that two were my limit. However...on Monday, I ended up with two females. Both a bit younger, and larger in size than the boys! They will be kept in their seperate pairs. Still getting to know them, but both seem quite sweet. Pickle is a tortie crested x long-hair, and Pepper is a tortie&white smooth-haired.
4 is my limit in terms of space and budget right now, but going to give these girls just as much love and affection as I give the boys!
