Are certain breeds of guinea pigs bigger than others? Also are there particular personality traits affiliated with each breed? I would assume that each pig is different, regardless of its breed, but perhaps I'm wrong.
My teddy is significantly smaller than my abyssinian. The teddy is approximately 2.5 pounds and my abyssinian is about 3 pounds. I was wondering if it was related to their breed. I suspect the size has more to do with their personalities and eating habits because my big guy is really quite the PIG! He squeaks non-stop for food even if he's just been fed. He's a real eater.
