Hello from Argentina!!

Hello all!!

My girlfriend and I recently adopted a pair of lovely guinea pigs (called cobayos here). He bought them from a local breeder who's an expert on rodents (there are not rescues here).
They are called Ewok (an american boar) and Loki (an abyssinian boar) and well, we're very happy with them, first time Cavy owners both of us. They are constantly pop-corning and running laps around his cage.

Those are from the first day at home:






so... Hi to you all!!

Oh my, sorry! I don't know why I said girls when your post clearly says that they are boars :crazy:
Their ears are fine! I've heard of many South American piggies having sticky-up ears!
