Hello,
I'm needing some help or advice even. I've had my guineas 3 weeks on Friday coming, we waited roughly 1 week before trying to pet/handle them. We have little girl who will be 2 in May. I've kept them in the living room where we normally all are so they can get used to her as well. We feed them kale every morning (they take it out of mine&the wee ones hands) and have added spinach recently after I've filled their food and water. they get out for between 1 and 2 hours each day.
The issue I'm having is when I set the run up and open the cage they start teeth chattering like mad both of them, when ever they come to sniff me they run off just as quick. I'm worried they're not settling in. They were bought together from a little pet shop but seem to be mounting each other on a daily basis with a weird sound, I know this is to do with being the boss of the cage ect. Is there a way I can get them to come to me to be put in the run. At the moment they are jumping into a strawberry shaped hideout and I transfer them into the run then they come out when they're ready. Once they're in they popcorn and wheek loads so I think they like the run just not me? can anyone help please?
