    Bonding Too risky?

    Hello, So about a week ago two of my boars got into a blood drawn fight. I separated them immediately and cleaned up their minor wounds. They are still separated. Now they've always had their bickering but never a blood drawn fight, until of course last week. The boar that I put in a separate...

    Fighting Boars got into fight

    Yes. And I don't know if this makes a difference but their interaction when they see each other from cage to cage is showing their teeth, rumblestrutting, chattering and their fur standing straight up.

    Fighting Boars got into fight

    Hello, My two 5/6 month year old board got into a blood drawn fight. They have always had their normal bickering but I guess yesterday was the last straw in their relationship. I split up the fight and took care of their (minor) wounds immediately. I now have one (my oldest) in a seperate cage...

    Quarantine Guinea Pig missing others

    Wow thank you so much! I'm really glad I posted and asked. Actually it was an exotic vet, which is disappointing since the oral itraconazole is not necessary and hard on the system! -T

    Quarantine Guinea Pig missing others

    I was going to try Monostat 7 as I've heard that is helpful. The fungal infection is on his nose, where it is scabby and slightly cracked. There is no apparent hair loss or excessive itching. He's sneezing as well. Other than that his eating habits and overall behavior are normal. They are...

    Quarantine Guinea Pig missing others

    They're shipping me the medicine which is arriving in 2 days so he hasn't started treatment just yet. Do you think he should have medicine in his system before putting him back or just going ahead and doing it?

    Quarantine Guinea Pig missing others

    Hello, My five month old boar recently got a fungal infection where I have to seperate him for 2 months away from the rest of the herd (at least) as told by the vet. I have him in a seperate cage in another room, but however he is quite upset and missing his pals. He is getting extra love and...

    Fur Dander

    Hello, I've noticed that my boar Gilbert has a lot of dander but doesn't seem to be itching a lot or irritated when handled. My other boar Gordy has some as well but not nearly as much and doesn't itch or irritated when handled. I've read around online and read it could be signs of mites and is...

    Allergies Sudden onset of allergies

    I've been reading around some other places that it's time to cut some nails, as their pee gets stored underneath their nails when they walk on it, causing hives to surface on the skin, or other allergic reactions.

    Allergies Sudden onset of allergies

    I do have seasonal allergies but notice it's only a problem when I hold Gilbert. It's a possibility but not too sure.

    Blog Does anyone else suffer from this?

    I have clinical depression and anxiety, ever since I got my piggies they help me during attacks and sometimes before; helping prevent them. Getting my guinea pigs was a random act, but one of the best things I've ever done. I never knew what a positive impact they would have upon my mental...
