Junior Guinea Pig
Haha I feel like I'm making too many threads, but I'm just so paranoid
I've read the sticky about weighing and when I saw that "Young guinea pigs grow quickly for the first 4-6 months at about an average weekly weight gain of 20-30g (slightly below 1 oz)." I got a bit worried.
Anyway, my piggies are about 4 months old, a bit more. I weigh them every week on the same day. Last week Gnar had gained 40g and Sneaky 32g. This week Gnar gained 13g and Sneaky 12g. Is this normal?
Also, am I giving them enough pellets? - I give them 60-70g pellets a day. I used to give them twice that amount (last time was sometime around last week) but then I read somewhere on this forum (don't remember which thread), that that's way too much..
