Recommend a shampoo and walk me through a bath. How much water do I use or do I just run them under a warm faucet.
My girls are stinky

This is our bathing guide Bathing (including cleaning grease glands)
they shouldn’t really be smelly, before bathing I would look at your bedding and ensure it is not the problem first as you should avoid bathing too often and only do it if absolutely necessary (ideally only bathe for a medical need). A bum bath is often sufficient which only uses the tiniest amount of water and ideally not using soap at all Where possible. You can however buy such products from Gorgeous Guineas if you really do need to use a shampoo.

It’s likely the bedding and not the actual piggies.
