As I mention in that thread I am a little worried that they are more nervous than I expected. I would appreciate some advice on how long it m,ight take them to settle in, how much we should approach them, handle them etc, and ways to help them settle more easily into their new home.

They still seem pretty scared about being outside, preferring to hide in a corner of the hutch for most of the time.
 
They are beautiful! x) So can you hold them the day they've been born?! ;) My friend has 2 female guinea pigs. On Monday one girl gave birth to 5 and in the early hours of this morning, her other gave birth to two! She only just started holding the litter of 5, cos she thought you had to wait 3 days before holding them and she isn't planning on holding the new 2 until Sunday. Have we got it wrong? :))
 
Hi everyone

I just wanted to give you all a quick update on these 3 lovely piggies :)

They have settled in very well, and (apart from the older one) their confidence has grown in leaps and bounds. Poppy (the baby on the left in the first photo) in particular. She is always first out whenever their is food around, standing on her hind legs to take treats. The mum (who we renamed Milly) still seems nervous. Happy I think, but very reserved. I wonder if she migh have had some bad treatment before she got to Becklen?

They have grown a lot and their colouring has really come through now. They are truely lovely to look at. Watching them run around like lunatics at dinner time is still the highlight of my day. They get very excited when they know a plate full of fresh fruit and veggies is arriving. They get two plates a day, but you would think they only got it monthly from the way they react.

Milly: Slow and steady wins the race. Nervous and quiet. But better than she was when she arrived.

Peanut. Happy and sweet. Plays follow the leader.

Poppy. The leader! Excitable, confident, fun fun fun!

I will take some pics this weekend so people can see how they have come on.
 
Awwwww and ahhh and awww they are just such cuties and the mummy is beautiful !:)
