What can I do to help?
They are not in a ‘huge’ (proper sized) cage, but one of the bigger petshop cages. I just heard from my Mum’s friend that they bought 2 guinea pigs, who have now given birth. Is there any way that you think I could help them get a bigger cage; as the grids are soooo expensive here in Aus?
Also, I really want to go around to their place to see if I can determine what gender they are. They are apparently 1 week old, so I probably won’t be able to tell yet, will I? They will hopefully take them to the vet before they are 3 weeks old to do this.
Final question, what can they do about the babies? I really want to take 2 of them, but we are pushing it as we are renting, and are only just allowed to keep them inside.
I may manage to convince my Mum that we can split the cage (once I have finished expanding) if they don’t get along. Do you think that there is any possibility that my 3 piggies would accept 1 or 2 new babies if introduced properly after quarantine, or would I have to separate?
Thanks so much for taking the time to read this; hope you can give me some opinions/ideas!
