Hi I?m new to guinea pigs. I recently got 2 young brother pigs (they?re about 2 months old now). They were handled a bunch before we got them. My problem is while holding them, they seek out fingers to nibble on. They nibble too hard and have drawn blood. My 5 year old was ?bit? by one today and is now terrified of them. My daughter is 12 and also won?t hold them anymore because of the nibbling. They?ve broken skin on me as well. I know they aren?t being handled too roughly, aren?t in pain etc.
Any tips to stop this? Obviously we don?t put fingers in front of them but both seem to search for them when being handled.
