Unexpected new Guinea pig owner. (Australia)

So lovely to see how well they are all doing. You have done a great job looking after them. :luv:

Very best of luck with your exams and i hope the bee problem is resolved soon. I like bees and they do an important job but i wouldn't want them living in my house. :eek:
 
Yeahah they are all getting so big! we just got home yesturday! no Bee someone is very happy to be home.
Everyone got baths! and Majora got his first day at the kira cuvy salon appointment😉 his hair was just so knotted up from their camping trip! But he was really well behaved. Not so much when it came to bath time Majora will only let Delaney bath him. But Link will only let me so it evens out 😂😉 Hades LOVES bath time 😂 he is very much the pretty boy 😂 but it's great to be home! They only have temp set up atm because I have alot of exams to study prepar for.
Hades is showing signs of massive domanance so it's a bit if a worry. We just hope he will grow out of it 😅 the other two full chilled. But we have almost saved up enough that if he dosen't calm down we will be able go have a little seporate space for him and Link +Majora. And look at getting Hades a friend of he is able fo have one (he is not aggressive exactly but he is stressing the other to out with all the humping. When he is out link and Majora are snuggled uo and chilled. Bring Hades into the mix chaae humping majora, Link just hid at the start but now he is starting to defend himself. So we will just have to wait and see. They are all still growing after all.

I really hate to poop on people’s parties, but did they need a bath? For a medical reason or were extremely dirty

They are doing so well considering their start in life!

Do keep an eye on that dominance from hades though. I think it was mentioned earlier in the thread that three boys together won’t usually make it to adulthood and they will need to be separated out into a pair and then as you say, get hades a new friend. This teenage, hormonal phase lasts until they are around 14 months old with spikes where things usually get worse for a while throughout the time so growing out of it won’t be any time soon! Do prepare to separate him if link and majora have too many problems with hades.

So they all had very bad fungle when we got them. So they had to be treated. Link didn't However it is highly contagous not just to each other bit to us also. The bath that ghey just had was because they where extremely dirty. (esspecially majora his hair was so knoted up so he got a trim then a bath.

Yes we know and we are keeping a close eye on Hades. But Link is kinda the boss he will not take it but it really open so for the most part they have so much room it's not that big of an issue atm the temp set up almost takes up the hole lounge room 😂 I have ordered a new set up for them it says it will get here in a few days so we can have a more proper set up (Finally) so very much meh no point setting it all up proper just to have to take it allll down again! Four Time in a week is enough for me and set up the new one. But right now. We are just playing it by ear and seeing how they all go. So far nothing major has happened. Hades just will not stop trying to hump Majora. Link is the boss he will not take it. But Ann and Lyn both say it's to early to tell so long as they don't full go each other he could grow out of it and they are allowed to free rome so they do get lots of space. We have enough room that we thought we would see what would happen if we took Hades away. To just give the other two space they all don't like it much, lots of calling for each other, was more stressful for them then Them being together so for now I'm trusting what lyn and ann say as they have year or experiance with rescue piggies and they keep telling us it's all normal and to early to say yet how it will turn out lyn has a group of 5 boys at the rescue so she said if they have the space for now and no one is bullieing anyone or full attacking then it should be ok as For now they are all happy, healthy little young piggies and if we are going to seperate Hades, we can't just throw him in with Just any piggie. We will have to trial him until we can find him the right match. But I think Link and Majora will be just fine they are very mellow and chilled and will snuggle up together. Link will snuggle up with either, while Majora and Hades no never. Not unless they have to (aka the camping trip)
But I'm keeping a very Hawk eye on them I have from the start and any sign of a nope this is to much Hades (the most likely instergater) will be permenatly taken away from the other two and we will proper talk with Lyn and ann about paring him with some sutters they both have that could work with him (we have spoken with them every step of the way). And Lyn is alway they are all very lucky piggies especially, Link so very lucky!
It is funny but link only likes me and Delaney anyone else he teeth chatters 😂 I really don't think he would ever bite anyone he is not aggressive when someone else holds him mostly just middles and sqirms that he wants to go down while if its me say not a care in the world. They are all very calm and have been handeled a lot but it is kinda funny when he does it. The more he knows a person the less he does it but 😂 so it must just be a trust thing. Majora is the smart one. Hades is like very solid and not to bright 😂 link is very skittish around people he does not know and smart but he is learning that certain things if he wants he has to listen and he will get. I can tell whe its him scared or just being lazy. And man do they jump! They love jumping! On top of anything and everything 😂😂 anways haha it 3am I need to get to sleep. But we have a plan B already Inplace but we are going with Lyn and Anns every step of the way.
 
It is crazy how big they have gotten, ans hiw far they have come. Some quick before and afters of the cuteness😍

Two of the Boys (Link + Majora) Getting into mischief exploring the Depths of the Blanky together while I play pokemon lets go 😂 Hades is out playing Games with Dad

- Hades is growing up to be very Dominent, stocky little Piggie, so if he is put with the other two, (or swoped out) when it's snuggle time (like this) all hell breaks loose!, so he has to be on his own for snuggles. In the there home all normal bickering but nothing major or worrying, We are still holding out to see how things progess as they get older, with the Guidence of Lyn Cavy Savvy Guinea Pig Community - Help and Advice and Ann-Maree (two of the rescue ladies). As they are all still only very young.
Link ~ 3 months old, with Majora and Hades at ~ a Bit over 3 +1/2 months old. But all in all happy little piggies 😊

I think this one of my favourite threads. They're becoming such lovely, confident piggies and if it wasn't for your care and love they'd never have had a chance. Just comparing those last photos with the tiny, bedraggled scrap you first had foisted on you brings a tear to my eye and a warm fuzzy feeling to my heart :luv:.
 
Thanks, today they got a cage upgrade and I'm exhausted and the house is a total mess! But they seem very happy with their new little guinea Kingdom hehe
It needs a few changes and its not perfect. But its getting there. and they seem to love it (the princes are sleeping so we are not doing to wake them)
Majora Loves them Chin Rubbs 😍 Link is just all, The Guinea King up on his little cushion Thrown, All he needs is a crown an orb and a sceptre. His Majesty King Link, All Wheek King Link 👑 Wheeking!. Yes my Humans, you think you own me Ha!, No I own you peasants! Now bring me treats! 😂

Hades he for snuggle time can only be with them supervised and for a short period of time or things get a bit to stressful when they are in the enclosure no major issues just normal bickering. and they will all sleep near each other, usually Hades just moved far away from Hades if he is trying to hump him. while Link will turn around and be all try to Hump me..... well I wil hump you right back haha they always make me smile.
