    UK Cubes and Connectors SUPPLIER!

    Hairless guinea pigs.

    I agree with you all that Skinnys should not be sold into the wrong hands. I have had two Skinnys... Capy my first girl sadly died a very premature age of 7mths old, she had a terrible reaction to the lotion, I was applying to her skin and suffered with dry skin for weeks to follow. I found...

    C&C, need some help

    Thank you for that. I would prefer it to cover the whole top so they have more space. See I was thinking of making an upstairs for the boars two so its pointless me using there area on top for the sows to visit. This is how the cage is, sorry old photo... Emma

    C&C, need some help

    I currently have a 5 x 2 cage. Its split 2x2 for a pair of young boars(this will be extended up over as soon as I sort the girls out) and 3x2 for two adult sows, many not to the size they should be in. I am looking at adding a 2nd floor, but I would need it to cover the whole 3 x 2 for the adult...

I trained for two years at an Animal Related College, and we studdied a varierty of animals ranging from Tree-Frogs to Snake, Mice to Dogs, Pigs to Horses and everything inbetween.

    Grids, would they be safe to use for a 2nd floor?

    Yes, I was going to use them as the walls and flooring for a 2nd floor. I would use some correx a floor, because the mesh is very fine and like you said piggies nails could get caught. I have tried it out today and it looks good but I need to make a ramp, I am off now to check out the photo...

    Getting Along Everyone is entitled to their own opinions and beliefs

    I would never tag my Guinea Pigs, I have never seen in the flesh a tagged 'Pig but I do not stand for it. I used to work on a farm and we used to tag the cows/sheep/pigs and also put the rings on the lambs tails. I agree with tagging 'livestock' but not Guinea Pigs. These fluffy creatures are...

    UK On offer/bargain buy thread!

    I saw some fleece with a waterproof lining in The 99p Shop the other day. I am not so sure if this store is only in Hartlepool. Also Home Bargins have grids for £9.99 for 12 grids, last time I visited but the grids are fine holes not the large holes, like most C&C cages are. Emma

    Getting Along Everyone is entitled to their own opinions and beliefs

    I agree that everyone is entitled to their own opinion but some people do not agree with breeding, showing, etc and I respect that. They may not like that I used to breed, I am not now. I do not have the room to house the youngsters if I have a litter and they cannot be rehomed. I have suitable...

    Grids, would they be safe to use for a 2nd floor?

    Hello, I have recently purchased some of the finer mesh grids for HomeBargins, UK and I was wondering if anyone has used this type for a Second floor? Here is a picture of them... This picture is when I first got them and set them up, that is why there is no hay, food or water bottles...

    Breeder block hutches

    My nice advice, before getting your hairs on an end about these cages why dont you use some common sence and ask questions instead of posting things like... What an ignorant fool. from DrDolittle how selfish from Piglet seem to have become so preoccupied in winning and making money from...

    Breeder block hutches

    This thread has turned into more arguements. I am not going to defend what I do to this 'religious-cult' anymore. This was orginaly about my hutches and now you are blaming me for the deaths of my guineas. Maybe you dont have anything better to do in your time? Bored of this now.....:yawn:

    Breeder block hutches

    Losing a piglet/pup was not my fault, they were premature, and I tried my hardest to rear it but sadly:weepy: he didnt survive. It isnt a high percentage of hand reared piglets die, because they dont get their mams first milk (colstrum) which has all the anti-bodies in to help the survive until...

    Breeder block hutches

    Because of this topic I am here, these are my guineas we are talking about, and I wouldnt expect anyone who is getting talked about to sit around and do nothing. I am not interested in your views and I will never change my mind, I am happy with the cages and will make them larger when the...

    Breeder block hutches

    I have covered both subjects before and I am not going to repeat myself. I breed because I want to and breed to create a piggy close to the breed standards, not for money but because its enjoyable to show them and seeing them compete against each other for the closest bred standard. I am living...
