or i dont know common sense to take the babes to a vet?

I wouldnt breed guineas personally, but the people who owned Darce and Bing before me took the babes to the vet to be sexed so they could seperate them asap.

it just sucks that people can be this cruel- unintentionally or not.
 
The lady sexed the guineas herself properly once the second lot of babies were born. they sadly trusted the pet shop to sex the guineas correctly the second time. Yes mistakes were made but at least the guineas are being cared for now.
 
grrr pet shops :tickedoff: :tickedoff: :tickedoff:

saying that yesterday i was wandering around the suffolk show pets corner bit and found some guinea pigs looking a bit ticked off being it was cold and wet....and there wasnt alot of food around other than grass :( but hey they came from a farm park so they must be looked after really, right?
 
I am afraid to say that when I first bought guinea pigs about 17 years ago, although I had purchased books on how to keep them etc, I relied on the pet shop to sex them correctly for me and I thought I was buying 2 brothers. It was a little local pet shop and yes, the lady owner seemed to know what she was doing. Or did she? :o

Yeap, you guessed it ... it wasn't 2 brothers! I had a brother and a sister and yeap, you guessed it again they were flirting with each other. Well, I thought the growling was a bit weird and thought they may be fighting. I took them to the organiser of a local cavy club who I tracked down and she told me the news, albeit with a little giggle. A boy and a girl and the girl is expecting!

Well, as the saying goes that it history now and not to blow my own trumpet, what I know about gp's now I could write a book.
Basically, that's where my love for gp's started and is still with me today.
