Junior Guinea Pig
Hi guys, hold my hands up as irresponsible, have 3 kids all of which requested guinea pigs, as a family we headed out nievely to pets at home enquired, was told not to keep 3 together but have 4 so mum and dad got one too.. Was also told a bluebell hutch would be more than sufficient.. So bought hutch went home set up with everything and went back for the piggies, one side girls other side boys, same bloke we. Saw earlier kids like the boys so we. Walked out with 4 boys who were all together.. We get home everyone happy,. I then start my research, we have had them a week, I find this hutch is certainly not suitable I find out that boys need a much larger space I find out that not many people keep more than two boys together due to fights.. I love these piggies I really do and I want what's best for them, so currently re arranging everything to try and fit in a 2 x6 cand c cage for them.. But I'm am absolutely dreading these fights I keep reading about has anyone. Had experience with a bunch a boys that do get on.. I know space is a big Factor and trust me I am really working on that at the minute I feel so sorry for them and know its my fault for not doing the research, but am also not impressed with pets at home either.. Fingers crossed we have 4 happy boys, they have run of the conservatory in the day so are not cooped up all day in that bloody hutch.
