    Nutrition Any feedback on NatGeo Guinea pig food?

    I have not liked any nat geo products except their toys, my pigs love all the toys I have gotten from this line. I wasnt surprised about me not liking them due to it being a Petsmart brand, and sold no where else. To me its almost like the Great Value brand.

    Behavior Do my Guinea Pigs like each other?

    I would say yes, they are fine with each other. Sneezing is a sign of respiratory problems so I would see if you can schedule sooner, also, is this a vet that specializes in guinea pigs? Normal cat and dog vets won't work, and even some exotic vets are trained for guinea pigs.

    C&C Add 1x2 for every added piggy. However, add it anywhere on cage?

    I would say no to that because it is so narrow, but I bet @bpatters would know more

    Hay "FREE BALE OF HAY" Newport News, VA

    If I could, can I just take a flake of it? I don't have room for the whole bale but it would be nice to get some hay for free. I would have to ask my parents though first, as they would need to pick it up with me

    What breed? How do you know if a piggy will have long hair

    My peruvian looked like an abby when we got her and her hair was getting kind of long at 15-16 weeks and it was finally a full coat at about 30, I only had to trim her once every 6 months, her hair was very very slow growing I guess

    Diet Oxbow or KMS?

    KMs pellets are better than Oxbows since they don't use a certain calcium type (I dont remember which one) which prevents bladder stones :)

    Infection Flys !!!

    If they are fruit flies then put some apple cider vinegar in a cup, tape a piece of saran wrap in it and poke a bunch of holes in it with a tooth pick. Also do a large cage cleaning while deodorizing everything, they are attracted to rotting fruits and veggies. I get them if I leave hermit crab...

    Bedding What to use in litter area? Eating pelleted bedding

    I use Yesterday's News cat litter, I find when they pee on it it turned to wet dust, but its easy to wipe up with a paper towel. It didn't expand at all so I flt safe if they nibbled on it. Its also $15 for a LOT of bedding, as its a cat litter. :)

    How Many? How much do you spend per month on your piggys?

    Coming from the fish hobby, you can get a reverse osmosis setup that will pay itself off in a year or two

    Cage Jumbo Tubby Cage - what is it's usable size?

    I personally use my pigs old cage in the case of an emergency, its not near big enough, but it works. Since I have 3 now, I use a 3x3 play pen with a flat coro sheet, if traveling. It doesn't keep in poos well, so I just sweep 3-4 times a day when they are in that

    Hay Orchard Grass??

    Every once in a while I will buy a bag of Orchard Grass or Oat Hay for my pigs and use it instead of Timothy hay for a week, my pigs like Timothy more, but the other hays help with my allergies.

    C&C New Cage needed, guinea pig trio didnt work out

    Well, Im in a good spot, and they were reintroduced and after a few hours of rumbling and mounting they are all good, Im very thankful. I won't need a new cage for a while now, but I still plan on getting a 2x6 as it will be easier to clean :) Thanks for the help

    How Many? Adding another cavy to a herd of four?

    Yeah, my momma pig does not like her baby, or her adopted sister. I went from a herd of 5, to a trio, and now a single pig and a pair because I wanted something different
