3 girls ( 1 old dear & 2 youngsters that are probably sisters) :wub: ....still resisting getting more (just)!
 
Two; a girl and a neutered boy. The sort-of-plan is to add to the group maybe next summer.
 
Had 2, then 1 died, then got another and then another and then one more died so now I have two little stroppy girls at 2 and 7 years old :mal:
 
2 little trouble makers... both boys. But when they team up with their 5 bunny 'sisters'...
 
I have two sows. I'm still learning about Guinea Pigs so thats enough for me for now.
I have to two male pigs in the house too but I'm pretty sure you wernt referring to humans lol.
 
I havent got any yet. Waiting for some rescue guinea pigs. Will be getting a pair. I have kept guinea pigs in the past both as a child and as an adult. The most I ever had at one time was 13!
 
I have 18 piggies at the moment 8 boys 10 girls i was supposed to be only keeping 4 a pair of boys and a pair of girls but thats gone up to five girlies and two boys and I'm thinking about keeping another boy XD

Wow, that's a lot. Do you have them in small groups or big herds? I'd like to have a large herd really I was wondering if you think piggys like being kept in large groups? Xx
 
ive 3 groups of neutered boar and sows.i pair of boars,i trio of boars....22 piggies in total.ive only had piggies for three years,but it is now a passion !:wub:

Wow 22! I've been thinking I'd like a large herd of piggies in one big accommodation. Do you find they are happy in larger or smaller groups?
 
I have 5.Two bonded boars,two bonded sows and a recently neutered boar who will hopefully be joining the 2 sows once its safe following his neutering.I would eventually love a little herd-a neutered boar and about 6 sows.While I have my lovely rabbits who need tonnes of space,thats not possible but maybe one day in the future I could.

Like you I'd like 5 - 6 sows and a neutered boar but wondered if they are happier in herds or smaller groups xx
 
Do you have them all living separately or in a big herd? Xx

We have 3 pairs of boars and a single boar, which are all in separate cages but close to each other. We also have 2 pairs of sows again in separate C & C cages next to each other.. x

The females are in a large heard but boys are harder to bond and keep just in treos
 
I find it very much depends on the personalities,with boys pairs are best,1 neutered boar to 3 females or less seems to work best in my short amount of experience .really is personalities of each group,but boys are best in pairs,I'm just lucky i had an older boar to two very laidback adolescent boars and a big cage for them to go in 6x2 cage.
 
I have 6 4 boys 2 girls... I accidently got a pregnant piggie and decided to keep all the babies :) and I couldn't be happier. the babies are 3 weeks and 2 days old and keep me lovely and busy
 
We only have two at a time. I would love a bigger herd, but as we travel back and forth to the cottage in the summer, I need to be able to pack them all up to go. Along with the pigs, we also have a Syrian hamster and a betta fish.
