Ok, so cat carriers are much larger than the rosewood ones. The room I and the two piggie cages share is large but is packed with Guinea pig stuff (double as one of everything for each cage) mobility aids, craft supplies and DVDs ( modern tv is too noisy and flashy for my illness). You might...

you. That's why we were considering selling it for in smaller portions or giving it away to a local shelter but on a slide note we did end up getting another piggy but she is Peruvian an has hair that sheds everywhere lol she is only 12 weeks old but is very vocal when exited we called her...

Hello all, I have had my 3 sows for just over a year now and I want to move them into a shed, the great British weather is the main factor in this as well as the fact that I just want them to have more space. Does anyone have any suggestions on the best 6x4 shed to convert for guinea pigs in...

My rabbit shed was 35 degrees today with wet curtains at the windows ... the rabbits are now on the front lawn in the guinea pig run (not used by gpigs yet). I have taken the opportunity to bond them. It is going amazingly well.

Been laid up with a bad back for a few days now. The guinea pigs have a local pet carer visiting them. I managed to stagger down to the shed this morning. I missed them. It was great to see them and to give them hay and greens. They thought it was great too! The rabbits were all cuddled up to...

I suggested syringe feed but I think they were told they didn't need it via vet. It is very cold at the moment so they've split the three leftover females in a cage in a shed where it's warmer. There's 2 other boys in a separate cage with them. The other 2 males are outside. I believe they are...

Hi Please ramp up your critical care to ideally 60 ml in order to compensate for her obviously no longer eating much hay/grass fibre at all. Watching piggies chewing on cud can be very deceptive when the hay intake makes over three quarters of the daily food intake. You manage the amount of...

I have recently moved Saffron and Shimmer into the conservatory, from an insulated shed (with no electricity). They were not getting any sunlight and Shimmer had bubbly breathing. They now have some sunlight but there is no insulation in the conservatory (more of a lean to really, home made by...

Is the silver stuff damp proof? I have a shed that has a few rotten bits where it has been built on two sides really close to the fence (stupid design). I really want to insulate it but not if the insulation will just get wet. Good luck with your guinea pigs. Look forward to pics when you get them.

The lovelies were fine in the shed today (in run in north facing garden yesterday due to extreme heat). The guinea pigs made little cooing noises when I put them back in their cage last night. The rabbits hopped away flicking their feet in annoyance! Here are some pics from today.

We are waiting for our shed to arrive and plan to put the hutch in it. Conscious that it will arrive after fireworks night. Do you think it’s better to keep them outside facing the wall with blanket / duvet on top. Or bring them inside for one night? I realise the change in temperature could be...

I wanted to adopt from them and they were very strict about having enough space for the 2 boars that I was interested in. That is a really good sign imo. I decided not to adopt in the end as the only space I had was in a shed and I wanted indoor guinea pigs. They were helpful and their guides...

Hi everyone, looking for lots of tips and advice for setting up my 6 x 4 shed for 2 Guinea pigs we have arriving next weekend. 😊 Particularly looking for advice on insulation type, size of mesh suitable to keep mice and rats out and paints/wood preservatives which are safe for animals too...

I’m so sorry for your loss. A sudden loss is always hard to deal with. Hay is their main food intake but intake can’t be gauged by eye but it is also the first food group to be dropped when a piggy is feeling unwell. So by the time they stop coming for other food so quickly, they often haven’t...

Hi does anyone know of any wireless heaters available (battery powered ones)? My guinea pigs are currently in the shed and it’s getting so cold I want to keep them warm. But I’ve had a good look on Amazon and every heater I can see requires plugging in to a socket. Our shed unfortunately doesn’t...

Hi and welcome Duncan is a unique mix of breeds but it is a bit difficult to say exactly what has gone into him. It may be part aby but I am not quite sure. The bum end doesn't seem to show the typical pattern of rosettes and the headform also doesn't have the classic aby triangle; it's more...

I have 3 guinea pigs 2 sisters(Darla, and Cass) 1 other girl(Ginger). They have for 2 years all bonded really well until about 2 weeks. One of the sisters has always kind of been the dominant pig, but there’s never been big dominance fighting. About 2 weeks ago Ginger started what seemed to be...

Hi! My 5 year old guinea pig has been dealing with itchy skin for a while. She doesn't seem to itch much herself but when I stroke her and gently scratch her rump she reacts very dramatically, a bit like a dog when you scratch the right spot! I read this post: Guineas with really flaky...

Hi everyone, I’ve got my 6 x 4 shed all built now and was putting my foil insulation in today. I was unsure whether is should or shouldn’t be attached straight onto the shed walls or is there supposed to a gap between…I went with the first option. I have just attached it using staples but...

Welcome to the forum You will need to upload video to YouTube and then post a link to it here. We are unable to host video directly due to its cost. Importantly - Are they in pairs? If they are not in pairs - then do be aware (if you aren’t already) that keeping multiple boars together does...
