Guinea Pig Weights

[Cavyhappy]

Hi all,

I weighed my piggies yesterday for the first time (I know.....)
Anyway, I weighed them on kitchen scales and it said that Leo was 248grams (8.74794 ounces)
and Milo was 230grams (8.11301 ounces)
That can't be right, they're actually fat, so I assumed I either read it wrong or the scales stuffed up. I'm pretty sure what it said was 2.4kilograms (5.29109 pounds) for Leo, and 2.3kilograms (5.07063 pounds) for Milo.
They're big boys, but are chunky (they definitely need to lose weight), what's the best way to help them lose weight?
(Sorry unit conversions are bad)

Are you sure the scales are accurate?

Well... they are for cooking, but when cooking they're very accurate; I'll try again tomorrow

I think it is best to weigh piggies in grammes.

I agree, will do that
