just wondering what everyones fav breeds of piggies are

mine is - Alpaca and skinnys
one extreme to another
 
I can't think of one breed I dislike! I would probably choose an Abyssinian or a Rex piggie over all others though.
 
If we are going by looks then I am afraid that I'm rather boring. I just like plain, smooth haired piggies,bin shades of brown lol. However if we were going by character then shelites all the way, my 4 sheltie boys have been the sweetest, most docile and beautiful personalities :)
 
Oh I just love agouti cuties! My Mum is mad on tri-colours through so we have two tri-colours and two agoutis! I think that I prefer short hair piggies to the long haired ones but I do rather like the scruffy looking abbysian breed.

I couldn't think of any piggy colour or breed I wouldn't like though.

Probably Peruvians but got to say if it has a cute little nose and gorgeous piggie lips then I don't mind!
 
Rex and Abbys! x) both lentil and jake are dead :( i dont actually have a rex or abby now. Got two teddies, two smooth and one crested ridgeback
 
I love almost all but I have to say I don't like sheltie/coronets so much. Don't know why.

I love textrue so I love Abys, rex, teddy, swiss etc. Lunkyaras are amazing. I was really sad when I had to give my lunky boy up but thankfully I still get regular cuddles with him!

None of my piggies are completely smooth haired I have two pairs of boys...Donald is crested self chocolate and Suilven is a cream and white ridgeback/american crested ( I just love the cream colour, had never seen it before I adopted him) and Hamish and Angus are supposedly rex although Hamish's bum is so long haired I think he must have a bit of something else in him. He looks more part swiss to me.
 
i love all guineas but do have a soft spot for longer haired, especially alpacas.
 
Certainly Abys. My friend keeps telling me that all I ever seem to get are Aby's, until my newest boy that is. XD The breed just didn't seem to work with my coronet.

I also have a soft spot for Himis for their colouring but I've never owned one.
 
I have a terrible soft spot for Rex piggies ^) as you can tell <<<< rolleyes I've had several now & they are the most lovely characters. Abys are also a favourite, I love their manic running about & scatty characters :)

Ooo... I do fancy a rex or swiss but that's mostly because I want to feel them properly, they look so fuzzy. I'm absolutely in love with longhaired and semi-longhaired piggies and although not a recognised breed I do like Abyssinian/Peruvian crosses. As for markings/colours, I do love my ginger/ginger and white pigs but I'd love one with a black face mask (like inverse dutch markings), I think roans are pretty but the lethal gene puts me off, and I like smooth coats in the various agouti colours too and DE cream/buff. Also, I do really like texels but that's mostly because my OH looks like he's wearing one on his head so I reckon they could be friends. :))

Okay, pretty much everything!
 
I love all piggies. But smooth haired are my fav. Agouti's have this cute cheeky face that I love. I have 2 tri colour coronet sisters too which I fell in love with when i saw them.
 
My absolute fave is the smooth haired Himi - I couldn't believe my look when I came across my Oscar at Walsall RSPCA! :)
 
I love all piggies too but I have a real soft spot for Rex. There is just something about them. x)
 
I like Rex piggies too. I had a pair once and they were very cuddly and tame.

Mind you, I like my Heinz 57s as well. Have had a few of those and they are always robust and full of character.
 
I love all guinea pigs but I do have a thing for long haired. I love my Kennys look though, his hair is short but so shiny and such pretty markings. And Charlie is just great for cuddling, he has so much hair it's like holding a big fluffy teddy.
 
I suppose I admit an affinity for Himi's and have three sisters and a boy reserved as a huspig for them :)
I love all breeds though tbh and have Coronets, Aby's and the Heinz 57's - I do like Rexes after I met and cuddled a magnificent boar a couple of years ago :x
 
SWISS! :laluot_29: They are so magical, I have 2 swiss babies and they just have the sweetest personalities, not to mention the hair is amazing!
