PigglePuggle
Senior Guinea Pig
Well with all that's been going on with my mother's mental health I havent managed weight checks for almost a month... so we caught up today with weighing and health checks and nail trims...
Theo lost 80g! He's only 1100g today, he was weighed first and I was a bit worried until I weighed the ladies... Little Puggle has gained 80g, now weighing in at a not so little 1070g; Piggle has gained 70g is now a whopping great 1300g; Jezzy has gained 50g so is now back at 1180g which perhaps explains why she got her bottom stuck in the haycube...
I believe what we are observing here is a feminist redistribution of carrot slices and pellets, I'm not worried about Theo really as he is his usual happy relaxed rumbling popcorning zooming greedy little self, and he's a very small build for a boar really, he's just lost a bit of winter chub I think. He was noticeably chubby.
Of course I'll be keeping an eye on him but I often see one of the herd lose a bit of weight for a while and find the others have gained it through veggie theft!
1300g of Piggle is a bit scary, that's a whole lot of crazy blond piggy with mismatched eyes to deal with... and I am bleeding from Piggle's opinion of me trying to trim her odd mismatched front toenail, she has one dark toe that has a very difficult nail that curls inwards!

, and she was 920g! Yay. Did a little dance right there and then (me, not Molly!). Mine are outdoor pigs, my heaviest is 1100g, Molly is the lightest. I'm happy with their weights
