As above.
Personally I'm not sure I'd be comfortable continuing to use the forum if breeding any animal was allowed, which would be a real shame to loose such a valuable resource.
Completely get what you mean, but I wanted to voice my opinion if it was an area that hadn't been covered yet. Thankfully from the above it seems to have been covered in the rulesThis thread could have literally been over with a yes or a no. I was just interested in the rules, incase need to report or stop myself from mentioning any other pet breeding.
Obv I respect no one knows the answer yet. I couldn't find where the rules were. Il dig deeper
That would be the ideal to be honest, but as of right now I very much doubt that will be happening, interesting food for thought though.Something I have thought of before though is, if the huge chain pet store of the uk closed down every branch, I think gradually you would see less and less Guinea pig in rescue. I think that if you could trace back all of our Guinea pigs, most would trace back to the big UK pet chain store. They dominate right?
So then if there were hardly any pigs in rescue, would responsible breeding then become OK? I think people would become OK with it

There you go got itJust to be absolutely clear - please do not discuss intentional breeding of any animals on the forum.
I never thought of the back yard breeders. I tend not to go on any parts of the Web that do this, I have heard about it, didn't realise it was so much. Obviously I've come across actually young pets for sale when searching for cages or whatnot, but that's about allI think you have completely underestimated the role of the back yard breeders here. Many of the piggies we see on free ads sites are actually intentionally bred for profit. If the Pet shops stopped selling piggies the trade would shift out of stores and into the hands of back yard and other professional breeders Without the middle man being involved.
Unless and until Intentional breeding becomes properly regulated I cannot see that there is a place for discussion about the same here.
