Hi, you said if having loads of guineas then theyd miss out on cuddles and space yet its not like that with everyone whos got loads of guinea pigs - just thought id say that - and having 22 piggies is just fab and all of mine have different personalities and its great seeing how they all react to different things and how some are fussy etc :smitten:maisynpoppy said:ive now got 3 :smitten: and ive always said i wont get any more than 3 and I'm sticking to it! i wouldnt want them to miss out or suffer from cuddles or space. i think you should always start with a pair and if you want more after a while you could get another etc but you may find that having two, three, four is as many as you can cope with. Piggies do take alot of time and can cost alot of money with vet bills, daily veg etc i know i defo wouldnt be able to afford 20 without my three missing out! and i am on a very good wage
but i suppose thats just me everybody is in different situations O0
Thanks i do love every single one of mine and i do go college too and still have time for them :smitten: but i do agree with you also about starting off with a pair or something then expanding if you have the time and space neededLaure said:It's all down to how much time (and money) you have to give them really. Iloveanimals I agree with you and I am sure your piggies get loads of attention and love however not everyone has as much time on their hands.
Pether, do you have piggies already? Only an experienced (well experienced) person could care (well) for so many piggies. It is probably best to start with a couple and then expand slowly, that way you have time to realise how much work/money is needed exactly.
