Hi everyone! I used to come here to the forum very often and recieved some of my best advice on how to care for my girls. But I am now embarassed to have to post this thread. My husband has gone through a bout of unemployment, I work for our public school system and with summer here have no...
Another silly question, but when I went to the Wazoodle (spelling?) site and looked up the "zorb", am I correct that it is sold by the yard?
I am just hoping someone out there has ordered it from them, and can confirm that it is sold by the yard.
Thanks everyone!
So would this be a good example of layering?
top layer: fleece
middle layer: zorb
bottom layer: mattress pad or towel
Thanks everyone for all the great help. I really want to start this project in May so trying to do my research now.
my girls re about 3 1/2 months I lost track they were 5 wks old on Feb. 5th. Thank you for the suggestion. I think I am going to look into the KM hay.I always read so many good things about it on here.
Okay so I am now on my third type of hay for my girls. 1st we used Kaytee Timothy hay, it was very hard like straw but still fragrant. Then I bought Sweet Meadow Timothy, it was very soft and curly and super fragrant. Now I have purchased a somewhat huge bag of Oxbow Timothy, it is straw like...
Okay, so I feel slightly stupid having to ask this question, I see tons of posts on here pertaining to piggy breadspreads, however, I am still lost at the concept of how to make one. Right now I am lining my cage with 2 or 3 towels and then a layer of fleece that when I cut it I left about 4...
I do not have per say a "hay rack". My old hay rack mounted on the ouside of the cage and dropped hay all over my floor, so I used an idea I found in a photo on here. I went to the local hardware store and bought a curved piece of PVC pipe. Then we drilled two holes in it and I zip tied it in a...
My girls do that too. We have one large woodland hidey and they both will take turns hopping up there to play queen of the house. I have a photo of Fluffy on top of it in my albums in my profile. You have beautiful piggies too! Thank you for sharing the photo.
Hi everyone! Our girls are probably about 14 weeks old now, we have had them since Feb. 5th and they are still very skittish. Even when I hold out lettuce or something to try and coax them out, I still have to spend a few minutes running laps around the cage with them to get them out in order to...
I was just wondering what kind of things everyone uses as their "treat" for their piggie, as in what is their favorite once in a while treat that you know they will come out of hiding for no matter what?
I agree with you and my main point in my posts on this thread was about being kinder when responding in general. And the funny thing is, I actually (if there is a mod out there go ahead and slap me on the wrist *laughing at my silliness here*) went and read all the forum rules here just now, and...
We are all learning something. I applaud you for working so hard at another language, many people give up easily. If you ever have any questions on anything, I will gladly help (that's with the English language, as I am still very new to the piggy owner thing).
I do agree people should spend more time researching before getting any pet. Just so you know what is involved with caring for them etc. And while I did not buy my girls from a pet store, I wish I had found this site and maybe asked some of ya'll to help me find adoptees before buying mine where...
While i can understand your point of view and it is probably the same point of view many other long timers here share, I am most certain you all are tired of typing the same old thing, I was merely as a newbie and kind of an outsider stating my opinion and if you look back, I got some pretty...
I do understand that a more direct approach is the time saving way, believe me, I could use some choice words to get my point across, but it would be hurtful, and I choose not to be that way. I just firmly believe you can catch more bees with honey than you can with lemons if that make sense...
I appreciate your tolerance with me and my opinion and be careful what you ask for, I may just ask you to teach me some Russian, just so I can say I know some words, I think other languages are fascinating!
Re: 6 months later...this thread is still going strong huh? ???
That is how I feel too. i would have just thanked you for this post, however, I am not allowed to do that yet.
