    Forages Breaking up a bale

    I bought a bale of Orchard Grass and am having trouble getting it apart to put in their cage. It's a compressed bale and I have a muscle disease so am weak. Any ideas on tools I can use to break up a bale? I just like to put hands full in their litter pans a couple of times a week. Sent from my...

    Hay Using hay bags

    I bought two hay bags off of Etsy, the fabric kind with the two holes in the front. The pigs seem to be doing okay with them and it's a whole lot neater but I am concerned with how they are getting their little teeth into the hay. How do they get it out through those little holes? Are they going...

    Reference Cleanup

    1.Does anyone use a regular vacuum to pick up hay from the carpet? If so what kind do you use? 2. My guys use the area next to the litter pan but don't actually climb in the litter pan. Maybe the sides are too high? What brands of litter pans do you guys use? Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk

    Size 2x versus 3x

    I have noticed that cages seem to use two grids on the shorter end. I used three. Is there any reason 2x is the standard? Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk

    Play Entertainment

    Hi, my new Piggies seem to be bored. I visit their pen several times a day, cleaning it, then bringing them meals, treats and sometimes I just sit and talk to them. At night I bring each of them out to the sofa to snuggle for about half an hour. That's about how long they last before they need...

    Hi

    I had a Peruvian guinea pig about four decades ago but don't remember much about it. Last week I got two rescued Abyssinian guinea pigs so feel like I am completely new to guinea pigs. I've read two books and numerous articles but know there is still much to learn. I've been rescuing rats for 9...

    Behavior Biting

    Both of my newly rescued pigs like to get their faces close to my chin then they lean back to look up at me. I am afraid of being bitten in the face and have read about cavies that do that. I don't know much about their backgrounds, but they aren't making any noises that I would take as a...

    Adopting Happy pigs

    These two brothers were cage separately at the sanctuary where I adopted them because they don't get along. I tried putting up a divider in the cage but they both kept popping over it so I took it down this morning and here they are tonight! They just needed a little more space. Sent from my...
