Well, my sister was holding the piggies this morning and err, they seem to have, err.. balls :P lol, they're definately both the same, but they've never seemed to have them lol. They have nipples too, do boys have nipples? We're thinking they're boys... uhh, we're stupid lol. Are Pepper and Beauty too girly? um, I took a few photos with my sister phone, but wont be able to show them until tonight/tomorrow.. uh.

Well, erm.. we think that the so called girls are actually boys.. today was the first time we got to have a proper look and they don't look very girly down there :P
 
If you press just above their anal sac/hole, does anything pop out above it?
 
I remember when I got Brandy he looked like a female then the next day he looked male. Best to check again :D
 
once you know you can tell the difference so easily boys do indeed "pop" when you press gently around the site lol, girls have no protrusion and despite gentle pressing nothing appears, the pom poms appear a little later if they were visable at the begining it would make it easier, I have only got it wrong once with aptly named Demon I was sure he was a girl until he laid on is side and pom poms appeared lucky he never sired any babies phew !

hehe, well I'm pretty sure they're boys.. well, they have what seems to be balls :P but nothing 'pops out' when i press it, but they do look more like the photos of boys bits than girls.. whatever they are, they're definately the same, so that's a relief ;)

i don't know of any rescues near by, i'll try and get some photos for you though.
 
Yes please! I'm curious to see these boys with balls but no poppy out bits ;D ;) :-*
 
My mum's friend got 2girls from pet shop and hey presto ,babies!yep they were so wrong!Said i would sex the new babies after few weeks,got there she said vet was sure the babies were girls.ok i check guess what? yep they were 2boys no question when you press gently on lower tummy!Mum's friend said "oh,yes there are boys!"
 
Jane, you could always pop them over to me and I'll sex them for you?
 
Thanks for the offer.. I'm gunna try get some pictures, I'm pretty sure they're boys.. or girls with balls ;) but if I'm still unsure at the weekend I'll ask dad to take me :P

eugh, well i can't get any good pics of them because i only have my crappy webcam, but here are the best i could get of peppers.. they look pretty manly i guess?

edit: mum and dad just came up and I got pictures up of both sows and boars 'bits'..we're almost 100% Pepper is male because 'she' has balls.. but Beauty, well, we dunno :/ Beauty doesn't seem to have any balls and we're not sure was 'she' is..

Liz, I've PMed you..well, I will have by the time you read this ;)
 
Bring them over jane! I'll show you how to do it for yourself too
 
Thanks soo much Liz :D Don't want babies here, as cute as they are :P

Of course I will :D Whether they're girls or boys, I don't mind.. I'll still love them if they're boy/girl too, but then i have to make some decisions hehe.

I think if they were one of each the girl would probably be pregnant

yeah, that's what I'm dreading.. pepper has what looks like manly bits, but with beauty i dunno.. 'she' kinda feels like it though, but i never get a good look at 'her'..

but if they are male/female.. no idea what I will do.
 
If one is preg and is far enough on wards I'd be able to tell you anyway. If it turns out ones male ones female you might have to neuter the male and keep them seperate for a while

yeah, hopefully they will both turn out to by male though, and our inexperienced eyes just don't see that ;)
 
i think men are abit different but wen they're young its hard to tell. We had smidge for over 2 months and 'she' was fine, then one day, we noticed the changes on him and the other girls. so we thought nothin of it, and then he started mating with fluffy, long story short, he was a boy, who is now netured lol! i think u can find websites to help you. if not I'm sure people on the forum can find sum pics to show u off the net. i wud but I'm afariad ill get told off :o
 
I just had my hands on these lovely beauties, and they are both indeed boys
 
Hehe, yup they're both boys apparently.. They're keeping their names, I don't care if they're girly hehe :P They also had their nails clipped and filed and she checked their teeth for me too :D

..and now they're munching on the hay in their clean cage :P
 
Well at least they're the same sex :D Well done Jane for recognising that they're not girls and I agree keep their names, they don't care and they are beautiful :) :)
