Hello!
I have two guinea pigs, named Oreo and Cookie! I am going to send some photos of them on here and please reply and give me some tips on everything !
We adopted them, they are 2 years old
 
:wel:Below the typing box is an ‘Attach files’ button.

There is a lot of info that can’t all be typed so have a read of the guides in the link below. Did you adopt them from a rescue or private person?

Boars need space so aim for 180x60cm housing as a minimum. Looking forward to some photos of your boys.

If they’ve been there less than a week then I would give them time to settle in. You will need to weigh them weekly at the same time as part of the lifelong health checks. So make sure you have a good set of scales.

Sorry I didn’t reply sooner. My guinea pigs are now 2 years old and I got them from a rescue place called Blackberry Patch (Chelmsford). Thank you for all the tips! They are very useful could I have more tips on what to feed them and other stuff rather than all the settling in stuff because they are already settled in.
Thank you
