Hello
I don’t have any wee pigs yet. Sad for me!
I am currently constructing a 575sq ft habitat for a near future sorority of guinea pigs though.
My current thought trend is to initially get the habitat completed this summer/fall. And collect my pigs at the beginning of next spring (ish).
Its rough right now.
Plans for building pig houses, burrows, shade houses, toys, bridges etc. are well underway. For the most part i am using the trees that get cut down to create a scaled down primitive village setting with whatever features I dream up along the way. And planting grasses
The site I chose is behind the cabin. And was clustered with too many oak and pine trees just like every other inch of this place. I’ve cut down the trees, cleared the area, fenced the perimeter and started creating things.
A long ways to go and a lot of fun getting there so far I’m learning a lot.
For the pigs, I think I only want short hairs. They’re the cutest ever.
I have kind of set my heart on the number 8 as a good grouping for me to enjoy and the pigs to to feel like a herd.
Well, there you have it. My plan, which is constantly being tweaked every time I learn something unexpected. And I have a career too, so the habitat is coming along pretty fast for as slow as I am on elective projects and how very little I knew about guinea pigs lol
Thank you so, so much for all the shared information on this site!
