My three 'Essex Boys' are making me worried :-\
Had a major clear out of the shed today (I Know Vikki But Shed tetris is fun! x8) )
Put them under cover on the patio next to some other of my horde
Wll put them in a cage run 5ftx2 1/2ft and an old hutch with no wire door and they totally panicked! they sat next to the hutch and kept running around itevry time i moved and only went in when i put them in!and they didn't move!
and when i told George the Dog stop stop eating guinea pig poo (my dogs favourite treat!) well they went beserk!trying to climb up the cage and everything!
freaked me out!
even now in cage they trash their area anything in their igloos etc get upped and not till i replaced the iglo with three card tubes did they then settle But if i raise my voice or move past thier cage they scramble all over each other and then Melchior freezes staring at me Balthazar does the same and Kacper runs around then cautiously approaches
staring at me!
It makes me wonder what else happed to these guys!
(they where from a breeder ex-stock who contacted the rescue saying take them or pts they are about 8 months old housed 4 or 5 to 1 foot square cages)
any suggestions in helping these chaps?
