Adult Guinea Pig
Beep beep is now 9 days old and only weighed 31g at birth. His mum, Leiah arrived alreaday pregnant and gave birth to 8 babies. 5 were still born and the last 3 were alive although only just. Leiah showed no interest in them and despite all my efforts 2 were just too weak to survive and died a few days later 
Yesterday Leiah turned on Beep beep and had him cornered in the cage , chattering her teeth and going for him when he moved.
I removed him quickly and he's now being looked after by 'Auntie pig Cherrelle' - she had one big baby, Charlie, who is 2 days older than Beep beep.
I'm still feeding Beep beep 4 times a day but he seems to be doing a little better today after his nasty experience yesterday. Poor little chap, he's had such a rough start to his life - please can everyone keep their fingers crossed that he makes it - he now weighs 80g - still tiny for 9 days
Here he is with his adopted 'big brother' Charlie.
