    Fleece Does anyone know where I can buy these beds?

    I know pinterest has some good tutorials on how to make them! I just found a cat bed at the dollarstore and mine love it so I didn't bother making one!

    Introductions Thinking of adopting a new female pig to bond with my female

    Totally recommend it too! I knew my one was depressed so I just went out and adopted my second whom is 2 years older than my first. They get along great, the older one is a little bit more dominant but there have been no issues with fighting.

    New to guinea pigs any advice

    I would recommend getting a second piggie (Male for obvious reasons). I got only 1 first and he was so depressed and wouldn't eat so I adopted another and now he is so much more tame and friendly (still a little crazy but he's young).

    How Much? How much calcium do my Guineas need?

    I always make sure that my guinea pigs have lots of hay and pellets and every evening they get their salad time. I usually give them a few leaves of lettuce (romaine, green leaf or red leaf, I try to switch it up) about 3-4 parsley sprigs, small chunk of carrot, and then something else whether...

    General Alternatives to the traditional hay rack

    I just use an old kleenex box! cut out the plastic and glue around the opening and cut down one side to make a bigger opening! then when they get soiled or chewed up you just replace it with a new one!
