She also snapped at Luna, got up this morning and Luna and Alfie had their backs to her ignoring her :)) I'll get the bond to work, I think because my lot could smell your guinea pigs scents on Sadie, they probably thought it was a mass attack and went on the defensive. Now Sadie has had a bath, I'll bath my 3 and try again. I can keep the hospital cage in the shed till they get used to one another. ;)
 
Not many like you and Christine around.So pleased she has ended up with you.Nothing is too much trouble for your animals, I admire that.I was asked if I would rehome any boys Jazmine had.Spent over hundred quid on secure cage so he could stay with me.
 
So far so good, Alfie and Luna have been bathed and are in the cage with Sadie. A small amount of teeth chattering, plenty of chirping from all 3 but no lunging at the moment. Stella to go, watch this space.
 
All four are munching hay, Stella launched at Sadie, but she stood her ground and nipped Stella, this shocked her and she backed off, nowhere near the amount of chattering as last night, all is quiet in the cage at the moment. ;)
 
They are all lying down peacefully in their own space, with just the odd chirp if one gets too close to the other, they then back off and lie back in their own space. It will probably take a few days in the hospital cage getting used to each others smell and establishing a new hierarchy before I put them back in the hutch. If the weather remains hot tomorrow, I'll mow the lawn and try them on the grass together. I've put two water bottles and 2 food bowls in the cage, they're all taking turns to drink at the water bottle and eat out of the bowl, before moving on to the next like musical chairs! :))
 
Yippee! So glad you found another sow for your herd @BossHogg , after the debacle over Claudia!:nod:. As far as I know, Claudia has settled into her new home ok. Your new arrival certainly looks a stunning lass.
 
She's settling in slowly, the other 3 are getting used to her, they've been a tightknit group for 17 months, so it's obvious a newbie will upset the apple cart. Small steps and all that, they're going on the lawn later. ;)
 
Lawn mowed, I'll just tidy everything away and I'll try them all out. ;)
