Junior Guinea Pig
Recently, I devistatingly lost my eldest piggy due to what was probably old age while she was recovering from an illness. I have 3 other pigs (2 sows and 1 boar). The sows are sisters which we adopted from a rescue and the boar is also a rescue pig. He and our female pig who sadly passed were very close and he seems lonely. My mum was more than happy to allow me to get another pig to keep him company as she has noticed his loneliness. I looked at rescue centres and all the ones local to me only have baby pigs for sale. I haven't cared for babies before as all my pigs have been rescued that were about 2. About 8 years ago, one of our sows gave birth to 3 pups but I was only six so my mum did most of the looking after. I want to know as much as possible about looking after baby pigs (6-8 weeks). I have done a fair amount of googling but would like to know any other tips and important information about looking after pups. Thankyou
