Title: Christopher, how many guinea pigs do we have ?
Post by: Beetroot queen on July 27, 2009, 23:27
7 was the answer I got. 

I got home from work on saturday to find all the girls out in runs, I tend to do a head count just by habit always have when i count them in and out.

I did a quick count and found 7 girls in the run. "where is Squeak" I asked "in the run" he said

NO she wasnt he had missed her when catching them all and she was sat in the cage looking out at all her playmates eating grass 

Poor weee girl.

Here are my babies

I love the way they talk to you especially at feeding time - but when I had mine I would hardly call it a little noise  :lol: :lol:

My 10 year old will eat anything....he has eaten alligator, ostrich, snails(he didnt like them|)......and a big M (if he eats that , he'll eat anything)...anyway he was watching an old blue peter program and they were in peru, and the families there kept guinea pigs in their houses for food....he said he wants to go to peru to try guinea pig now..... i told him i dont think we'd get his wheelchair up the mountian  :ohmy:.. phew!
i draw the line at guinea pigs lol

Your piggies are really lovely  :)! Nice colours as well  :). I breed long haired pedigree Guineapigs specializing in lilac and slate  ;). Have a look at my website in my profile  :).

I think they eat cavies in Peru  :( :wub:.........
