    Treats Guess what I found in Kaytee Fiesta Treats!

    Oh, okay, i will have to look for it. I will also get the name of the medicine she is currently taking right now. It looks like she's eating just fine - since her food is all over the floor now. And i am currently in the process of getting a scale.

    Treats Guess what I found in Kaytee Fiesta Treats!

    @HannibalLecter What is acidophilius? Another thing, are guinea pigs not supposed to like medicine? Because both times i've done it so far, she's like made a weird face with her mouth and held still for a few minutes. Which is why i gave her the treats, but last night she didn't want the...

    Treats Guess what I found in Kaytee Fiesta Treats!

    @PrincessAngel @​ThePigSlave See, thats what i dont understand. She said that if i bought yoplait regular yogurt and fed it to my guinea pigs, it would be fine. And i know that she is cavy savy because out of the 8 vets around me, she's the ONLY one that deals with small animals. But she just...

    Treats Guess what I found in Kaytee Fiesta Treats!

    Since when is yogurt bad for them? I'm not trying to be rude at all, i'm just curious. I took my pig to the vet last friday, and tuesday i got medicine for her. The vet said to make sure she has food in her stomach (pellets or veggies), give her the medicine, and then feed her plain yogurt. She...

    Lethals Sudden Death

    Sorry for your loss. Another thing, my female pigs are 2 months and drink sooo much, so i don't think that would have been the problem. Maybe just call the vet thats 45 minutes away and ask them what the cause could have been? Usually they are pretty good with that kind of thing. Hope your other...

    General Boars and sows together.

    @Lishar @ellisa i don't know, i will have to get the book in my hand again and i can re read it word for word just in case i misunderstood it. But thank you. I guess that i will just keep everyone where they are now :) If you don't know already - i have 2 boys and 2 girls. I made the mistake...

    Grids Bobo got his head stuck!

    Poor Bobo :( glad you could help him with all the stress! I also just purchased grids from K-mart, and pumpkin is almost 2 months old.. Last night she tried lifting the whole cage up and got her head a few times. The cage isn't that heavy, but it can still hurt her. Thankfully my father bought...

    General Boars and sows together.

    Yesterday i was reading a book on guinea pigs. The topic was about putting boars and sows together. It said that if i get my boars neutered, and put them with sows, they will still fight. It also said that you can't put them in with females before or after a certain age in their life. Is this true?

    Behavior Very quiet Piggy...

    Last night Pumpkin was trying to escape her cage made out of grids. She was squeaking SO loud that she woke my boyfriend up. Hopefully when i go see her today she doesn't have any problems - apparently she dropped the grids on herself, but they aren't too heavy. She's the only pig that acts out...

    Behavior Very quiet Piggy...

    I can relate. My two females - Pumpkin and Pepe - are also veery different. Pumpkin is more energetic and adventurous around the cage. She's usually sitting in the corner or eating, unless she's sleeping. Pepe is quiet, i never hear her squeek, i never see her eat or drink, but i know that...

    Behavior Just need to vent it out

    @KaileighRussell that is adoooorable. i loove when my pigs act up, even though its not the best to encourage it haha. In the morning, my boys will squeak at the top of their lungs. Every time i say shh to them, they get LOUDER. i don't understand it! they have food and hay, and their igloo is...

    Size Big enough for 2 pigs?

    Okay, i think that they will be fine. Because by the time i get more floor space, the cage will get bigger. thank you :) @ellisa I did some drawing of what the cages could look like, but the wall space is 125 inches. Which would be 9 of my grids. So one cage will have to be 3 grids going across...

    Size Big enough for 2 pigs?

    I bought these grids today, and so far only Pumpkin is in there. I don't have enough space right now (will have more this weekend) but i plan on making a 4x3 grid cage for the girls, and a 4x4 grid cage for the boys. As for now, she lives in this It's just a 2x3 cage for now, she has to live...

    General Semi-important. (different breeds in one cage)

    Thank you @CavyMama Also, i have gotten a lot of different answers about the cage with a wall separating them. :/ So i'm not sure what to do. If i can't find anything online about it, i might just keep the boys in their cage, and let the girls have a really big cage.

    General Semi-important. (different breeds in one cage)

    Ooookay, calm down now guys. The only thing that i am concerned about right now is getting money for Pumpkins medicine today. It shouldn't be that hard, but it's always a task seeing that i'm 18, no job, (but im trying) and i drive 30 minutes everyday to see my piggies. (my moms allergic so i...
