housing questions

Hello 👋 So upon having a couple extra additions to my herd of 4 now turned 6, how do I know that everyone is fitting in? I’m not seeing them groom each other however there really isn’t any fights. There is the odd tiff that only lasts a couple seconds and that is it. All piggies are...

Hi all newbie here. I'm looking into getting a pair of guinea pigs either from rescue or breeder. Currently looking at hutch options. They would be outside, but in bad weather could have access to a shed, obvs thermal and waterproof cover on as well if needed. What hutches do you all...

Hi! I have had guinea pigs for many many years, I am wanting to buy a new cage (2 story for 2 pairs) I think Kavee is the best option for what I need right now with having elderly piggies! My main question is this: I have cats, they love the guinea pigs especially laying on top of their cages...

Today, I went to get some new piggies for one of my boars, who recently lost his cage mates and was beginning to sink into a bit of a depression. I asked the rescue near me for the male herd who had been there the longest and was most in need of a home. I was delighted that her most needy boars...

Hi everyone. Does this look ok for side by side living accommodation after a failed bonding? On the left, I have a lone sow. On the right, I have a previously bonded pair of sows. The bond for a trio didn’t work and we ended up with blood drawn 😔 Thank you in advance. Xx

I’m having a bit of a dilemma at the moment and I’m honestly torn. I have kept all of my Guinea pigs indoors and they’ve all occupied my bedroom- a nice warm room that I frequent so they get human interaction loads and I can cuddle them as much as I want lol. I love having them next to...

Can my one year old guinea pig and her 3 week old baby girl live with another girl? I am possitave that all 3 are female. The cage is probably about 8 feet squared? I think. And they each have their own hide and plenty of room. They get along so far. Can they all live in this cage while the...

Many of the threads I've read on here about hutches involve people bringing them inside because of the increasing cold. I got my piggies just this Wednesday (I've only had them for about 5 days or so at the time I'm posting this). I'm just wondering if it would be wise to buy a hutch for my pigs...
