Oh, my gosh, I have never seen anything so adorable! There are so few piggies in AZ. If I was anywhere near you I'd take 2 more males. I am putting my cavy cage together this weekend. I am making one big enough for 4 piggies. ( I have 2). That way I am prepared for when I can rescue 2 more pigs. I keep checking with our shelter here but no pigs. Alot of rats. My daughter resuces the rats. She is up to 4.
Best of luck with these beautiful babies. May all your pigs find homes!

Amy,
I am in LOVE with baby #3. Have you sexed them yet? (I know it is a bit early). That black/pinkish white ear thing has really got me. He is so darn cute.

Baby #2 has died. Please keep the other two wee ones in your thoughts. They have been loosing weight instead of gaining. They are eating a bit of critical care, though, so I am hoping they can pull through.

Oh Amy, I am so sorry. Those babies are so adorable and with you at their side I hope the other two survive. Baby three has gotten to my heart. I hope the 2 remaining babies can make it.

Baby 3 made it overnight but sometime between when I left to teach classes this morning and got back, she passed away. So now there is just Baby 1 left. This little one seems to be the strongest of the bunch and I am hoping will make it. He weighed in at 67 grams just now, which is not much. But he has been eating some critical care and I hope he can build up his strength and pull through.

Hi WendyK, Baby1 is hanging in, eating lots of critical care from me, I am hoping he'll pull through. He does have a good appetite and is pretty active.

That's a 1/2 tablespoon measuring spoon for size comparison.
