Okay, thank you. Is this true for most fruits? I know with oranges they can have both...is there any rule of thumb to help me know which need to be peeled or not? First time piggie momma here.

I'm a little lost here. I'm trying to give my girls some fruit (very occasionally) and this week I was trying bananas. However, I'm confused as to if I should peel them or not. Or if the peeling is all they should get. Anyone have any answers?

LucyPenny, this complex is not a large complex but the owner owns several properties. The only animals allowed here technically according to the lease are "service animals". We were allowed to keep our 12 year old cat because my daughter has anxiety issues and her doctor gave us a note that...

BFGuru, Management has already been in the apartment once for an inspection. I have the girls cage on a folding table right now (it's not a C&C cage) so I just took them and put them under the folding table and put a sheet hanging over to hide them and then turned on my radio in there for cover...

I'm sorry CavyTV, I didn't mean to freak you out. Lissie is correct in a way. My girls wouldn't actually be in the cage while it was under the bed. I intend to put them in the small pet store cage temporarily underneath a table and covered with a sheet. It's killing me now that they are in a...

I'm actually trying to figure out if an assembled covered C&C cage will fit underneath my bed. Long story short I am not supposed to have my piggies in the apartment I'm living in at the moment. Periodically management comes in to do unit inspections and I'm trying to find a way to temporarily...

No stand...just the coroplast and grids.

Hopefully someone with a covered C&C cage can tell me the height of the cage where the grids and connectors meet. As in from bottom of lowest connector to top of highest connector. It is kind of important for something I'm thinking about so I would appreciate anyone's input.

Thanks to you both! I didn't think that it was likely but I didn't so want to mess up either. I'm still learning and I definitely appreciate having more knowledgeable people around.

:) I'm really hoping that I get input back saying no you don't have to remove the seeds. I have a young piggie who needs extra Vit C and thought a kiwi would be a good treat for her. I just don't think I have to take the seeds out of it but would hate to make a mistake that could hurt her...

Thanks bpatters. I don't think she wanted them separated for contagion reasons so much as for me to be able to monitor how much Skittles was actually eating and drinking and pee'ing and poo'ing. I don't think I'm going to separate them anyway but I will separate them when giving them their...

Took her in because of strange breathing and a cough. Vet said her lungs sound good and that it might be the aspen shavings bedding I'm using. She said to try pelletized paper, separate Skittles and Ginger so I can monitor Skittles intake and output better and to load her/them up on Vit C...

Thank you BFGuru. That should have been obvious but my brain doesn't seem to be functioning properly today lol Also thank you grace&piggies. That probably would have been the next question and again should have been fairly obvious but I'm sure it wouldn't have been for me.

I was in Petsmart and saw these pellets in the bedding section. I'm assuming they are very similar to actual wood pellets but since joing this forum y'all are my go to sources for questions. :D I know that wheatgrass is supposed to be okay to consume so I'm not terribly worried about that but I...

I'm going to be buying fleece to use in a 2x4 cage. I want to make at least 2 liners but wonder if someone with the same size cage could tell me about how much I'll need to buy. I want it to cover the sides of the corollary enough to prevent burrowing. The amount of fleece needed per liner...
