A CRUSH! :))
 
Sweetie is my oldest pig (in the middle). She is such a pretty thing. Dora has the peanut nose (on the left) she came from Becklen Guinea Pig Rescue in Dec 2009. She is the most adventurous pig I've owned and is known as Dora the Explorer on account of her getting out the cage on more than one occasion. Luna is the pig on the right. She is a beautiful himilayan and extremely flighty. She is the sub pig in the herd and sadly sometimes is bullied by Minnie the Moocher (not pictured).
 
The photo was taken while we were staying with my parents. My Dad made the piggies a fabulous run that is very sturdy. So sturdy, in fact that it can scarcely be lifted! THe good thing, though, is that you know it is completely safe from predators and that if I ever adopt a baby elephant in need of restraining, I'll have somewhere to put it!
 
totally gorgeous x) - a squishle of piggles maybe?

Oh, I think you're totally justified in your opinion - they are simply gorgeous.

And in answer to the question, I just googled, and rather boringly it's just called a "group" of guinea pigs. There are many other words which would be much nicer.

They are very gorgeous cozy models. drool
Now I want to know how do they all get in there? Does one have to back in?! :))
 
Aii so cute! I want them! give them me! ..swapsies..? :p

I tend to refer to the collective as a 'swarm', sometimes maybe a 'mob' if they're rioting for cucumber alot..
Also, maybe a 'chorus' of guinea pigs, when they all start singing for their dinner!
 
That is so cute! No way would two of mine be in one sleeping bag they would be fighting. I see them cuddle sometimes but not like this! I think I would die if I saw mine like this!
 
Oh my! That has to be one of the top pigtures I have ever seen! Absolutely beautiful piggles! I LOVE them x)drool as Katiepops said, how do they all get in there?!
 
Thanks for all of your lovely comments, everyone! I think they managed to get in there because it's a tunnel rather than a cozy. When it was already rather full with two pigs a third was able to sneak in between them from behind!

I think I might use this photo in the logo for my website!
 
you will need a shoehorn to get them out! lol. they are gorgeous!x)
