I have 3 female Guineas that I recently got from a store
I went back there today to notice that they still had the sister of 1 pig that I have. I’m wondering whether I should get her and what would happen if so? I’m wondering this as 2 of my pigs are sisters the 3rd isn’t but they all were in the store together.
the 3 in the pic are the 3 I have but the single one is the sister.

Sows: Behaviour and female health problems (including ovarian cysts)

The questions I would be asking myself before taking on any more piggies is: do I have the space? Do I have fhe financial ability to support them and if there are medical issues? Where would I put everybody if bonding isn’t successful. If the new one isn’t accepted into the group, then what would I do with the left out piggy ie another cage and a new friend for said piggy.
I’ve added a link above there may be able to help you.
Be aware that being sisters and being in the store together is no guarantee that they will get on with each other - character compatibility and mutual liking is what will get them to successfully bond. That doesn’t mean that say that bonding is likely to fail, it has just as much chance of going well, but it is always good to be able to have such a plan just in case.
