I have just got the free adds for Kent just browsing and i see an add in there for 8 guineas all to sold for £10, so what do you recon a breeder shutting down, i haven't phoned i just don't think i could handle it today :-\

It makes me angry that people do this to these little guys

them
 
:(Does it state what ages/sexes they are? I hope a breeder doesnt get hold of them.
 
No it doesn't say but 8 for 10 just is a case of they have to go, and that is just disrespectful to life! O you know what i mean!
 
Ummm....if its near you, maybe buy them and then take them to a rescue....

At that price ANYONE could buy them for god knows what :'(
 
trouble is some people might buy them to feed to their snakes ! :'( :'(

maybe you could get them and take them to a rescue ?
 
Ok i have called

1 x Rex male
1x Texel male
2 x Sheltie male/female
2 x abbies male/female
1 x red self female
1 x dark self not sure what sex

they are in rainham and she has decided she doesn't want to breed guineas she wants to do rabbits she said the turn over was quicker :tickedoff:

i honestly cannot take on this amount of guineas without help and she doesn't know if any are pregnant :tickedoff: :tickedoff: :tickedoff:


what shall i do
 
I would ring a rescue and explain the situation and how you are considered about them being sold on etc etc. A rescue may be able to take them if you pay the £10 to get them there.

BUY THEM QUICKLY PLEASE! like said above they might be fed to snakes those lovely piggies deserve good owners and maby you could keep a few?
 
I can only keep the females i just don't have the facilty for boys without overcrowding
 
If you were nearer I could take them all :-\

I will find how far it is from us, but i have a feeling its a 300 round trip or something... :(
 
yeah I just checked and its 3hrs each way, which is a bit too far for me to drive....if someone can help with part transport, I should be able to help if needed :)
 
Have you contacted a rescue near you to see what they say? If they can take them in, you need only have them for a night or two if you possibly had the room? Poor piggies :(
 
I am near Canterbruy in Kent. I could help out if that's of any use - though I'm not sure I could take them all!
 
If we could arrange a piggy train to Dorset i could take them here :)
I'm in Bournemouth and run a rescue here.

If you decide to rescue them, I could help temporalily. I am just by Notcutts Garden Centre and have indoor space available but I definitely couldn't keep them long term.

Let me know.

I'm in surrey this weekend if you can get them near to surrey i can collect them.. and take them in, all if nessesary.

Happy to pay you back the £10 just so they dont get eaten. people make me sick :tickedoff: :tickedoff:..

PM me if i can help.
 
Thanks everyone :) but i have contacted the Rspca and they are stretched and cannot take any!

I am reluctant to rescue them due to just not having the room to accommodate them!! 6 boys in separate cages i just can't the girls no probs but in the same breath i am rehomeing Hamish and Elmo, but also after my sad losses i just don't want to get a herd that big,

Pampered pigs thank you for your offer, but i can only make local journeys in my car due to having probs again :-\ surrey is just to far for me to chance as is tunbridge wells, and to borrow mums car takes a complete Military prosion to get it.

I feel awful about it especially since she had Abbie's, :(
 
I know someone in Kent Ill see if she can get them and ill take them on if i can... i just hate to think where they willl go

If you want to email me the telephone number of this breeder I will collect them and I can get them to Surrey to Pampered Piggies at the weekend as well.

I too am worried what will happen to them.

That sounds like a fab idea. Do let us know how you get on, hope you get them ok :(
 
Kent girl have PMed you, and i want you all to know i really do care about these pigs.......... I just can't rescue them, and that makes me feel like poo really :(


I am truly relieved that Kent girl can do this, and a bit envious that you will have a texel in your hands,,, love that breed, don't have one(too much work)

PS please keep me posted
 
Hi them

Thanks for the phone number - have just phoned her and she said they have gone, she has got someone coming for them, she asked if I was the girl from Maidstone and I said no. Had you already agreed to take them and she is saving them for you or has someone else got in there in the meantime?
 
No i had not agreed to take them only that i had to arrange transport and ask my OH and would get back to her,

later on this evening when the kids had gone to bed,

God i hope they went to a good home i feel like i have let those pigs down!

sorry

them
 
what if theres a mix up, she could be saving them for you piggybaker. better check x
