Sherbs and Sooks had their first vet trip today. Unfortunatly Sherbet has possible ringworm :( but i'm happy to announce that Pumpkin and Sookie are doing brilliantly.
Sookie is looking nice and healthy and even started chuckling when the vet checked her teeth. Our was cooing over all three of them which is hardly suprising considering how gorgeous they are. x) When we weighed i was suprised to find that Pumpkin is 1.16 Kg which is twice the size of Sookie :o
Someone needs to go on a bit of a diet i thinks :))
 
I am glad for you that their first trip went well!

Some guinea pigs are larger breeds than others, so I wouldn't worry about Pumpkin - she's obviously destined to become a very large girl; just make sure that she isn't hogging the majority of the food!
 
awwwwwwwww that's good, but i'm sorry to hear about the ringworm :)>>>
I wouldn't worry about dieting a piggie........just make sure (as Vickyt aka Wiebke has said) that all piggies are eating enough :)
If you can, weigh them weekly about the same time of day and then you'll be able to see how well they're doing.
