Here is Dolly and Dinks cage layout that I like at the moment

Dolly rarely went in the hay - don't think she liked the feel of it next to her skin but now she's in there all the time. It's so much neater in there like this and with 2 of them just paper is okay.

Next some of Dink

Next Dolly - yep she's in her favourite place again - her cosy (thanks Polly)

Next these 2 are for Eleanor if I am not too late for the rescue day
Gypsy

And finally Charlie - she's gotten so big. The bottles are up a bit high at the mo while I wait for the side of the cage to be lowered or get bottles with long spouts. So they have to go up to get to the water with probiotic in it (which they ALL prefer)

I have taken a photo of bessie peeping out of her house (for Eleanor) but haven't added to me lappy yet. Later on

Lisa! That set up is amazing and I'm so happy Dolly is looking well, and Dink has a friend... Oooo I sense very spoilt pigs!

Gypsy and Charlie are both gorgeous too x)
 
Loving the setup and what stunning piggies!
 
These next two photos are of Bessie. Bessie was from the chippenham rescue. She came with Gypsy and where as Gypsy has tamed so much Bessie is still very very timid. She runs at the slightest thing and has just stopped squealing when I pick her up (up until about 2 months ago she was still doing it)

The first one is her from a while ago - I have probably posted it already

It's the first time she ever ate anything on my lap

This next one is her in her 2nd favourite place and 1st safest place in the cage - her wooden house. I bought this for them about 4 months ago. She loves it and as you can see she's modified it to suit her view out of the window.

She loves peeping out of this window - it's her all the way.
 
Such sweet guineas you have, and love I Dolly and Dink's cage, that's an ultra plush nest, they're so lucky! It's so funny how the shy ones still manage to find ways to keep up with everything that's going on, eg. widening windows to get a better view!
 
Nope I didnt do one as to be honest I wasn't sure if she would still be with us.

She was a free to a good home baby that has been poorly and it's somehow stunted her growth and damaged her health. She still breathes funny from time to time. I wanted a baby as Dolly was sad on her own but she was very agressive to the older ones. I found her going free and i'm pleased I did even if her life isn't as long as others, she has a fighting chance now.

She is alot better than she was I think and she laps metatone off a spoon so that's good! She's getting her vitamins. She seems to have 'switched on' the last 2 days. She comes for veggies now where as before I had to scoop her up and pop her down for them and then she would wander off and eat hay. But she has a good go now. She is a bit more feisty when I get her out of the cage to give her metatone and put cream on her bald bit on her forehead.

Keep your fingers crossed for Dink
 
fingers are crossed! The lady who runs "our" rescue swears by rolled oats to get weight on little piggies, maybe worth a try?

She's very cute :) I hope all goes well!
 
I've got her on oats, corn and flaked peas for now along with alfalfa hay (amongst others).

In fact I bet she can't believe she has so much food.
 
Dolly needs a few grams herself actually so it's win win right now.

Yep it's piggy fat camp! I weighed her yesterday and overall since Monday she's put on 25g. Pleased!
 
They are all gorgeous. I love the way piggies think that when they are peeping through windows that you cant see them. Soo cutex)
 
Fantastic set up! Lucky piggies, who by the way are sooooo cute! Little Dink! *melts* x)x)xx>>>
