We Got Our Boys Yesterday:)

[angel_uk]

Hello all.just wanted to tell you that we got our boys yesterday afternoon. They are a pair of cute boys. Very unsure at the moment as hiding as much as they can but that's due to their history .we are letting them settle at the moment and just offering some food and gentle talk. Very much looking forward to getting to know them and making them feel at home

Great that they have arrived! I am sure that they will come out of their shell once they have got their bearings in their new home; that can take a day or two.

Here is a collection of tips: https://www.theguineapigforum.co.uk/threads/faq-how-do-i-settle-shy-new-guinea-pigs.36239/

No, I doubt it. Piggie tend to respond more to tone of voice or melody of a phrase I find.
