Adult Guinea Pig
As promised! These piggies are the girls (and Lester!) who currently make up my big herd! It's not as big as it has been, but Lester's sure got his work cut out looking after this lot! I hope you enjoy!
The very handsome Lester! He's my herd boar and although he's getting on a little bit now and is actually likely to be 'retired' to live a quieter life with a couple of my older girls as soon as my garage conversion's finished in the next few weeks, he has presided over the herd for nearly three years now. He's big, scruffy and incredibly handsome - just how we like our boars around here!
Cassidy and Mia - our two leading ladies. Mia is the top sow with Cassie as her second in command. Such sweeties!
Muffin - One of my older girls at just over 4, she'll be retiring with Lester to have an easier life. Poor girl struggles with gas/bloating issues so I think she's going to need the quieter life as she gets older!
Mouse - Mouse got her name as when I adopted her from the RSPCA I was told she was 2 years old and only weighed in about 750g, she was tiny! However, Mouse now weighs just over a kilo and has bulked out significantly so I'd say she was probably only a young adult when I got her. Loves the herd, hates any new additions.
Kalani - With Muffin, she's one of my only remaining original herd piggies. How cute is that face?
Sherbet - Might be as cute as a button (seriously cute, but don't tell her.) but this little piggy is chief trouble maker. First to shout for dinner (or food at any time of day, really), she's definitely Chief Rabble Rouser...
Mistletoe and Sugarplum(p) - Sherbet's partners in rabble-rousing crime.
Cola and Liquorice - Black Beauties. Not sure if any of you followed Milhaven's field pig rescue last year, but these are two of those girls.
Buttercup and Marigold. Marigold is mummy, and hands down the prettiest piggy in the herd. She has the most perfect little face and big black eyes - she's stunning. Fuzzy Buttercup is super cute, but is my only biter - little monster!
Blossom and Pippi - Big girls! Blossom is Pippi's mum and is a very chubby piggy. Looks like Pippi's got mum's genes too, bless them!
That's my herd as it is right now! It'll be changing towards the end of the month as I retire Lester and a couple of the girls to give them the quiet life and adopt a new herd boar (and probably some young girls........) but for now at least, this is my herd!
