gorgeous piggys, its amazing when they are born at how quick they are to get up and go, reason behind this is because guinea pigs dont use burrows or nests in the wild so need to be ready to run away from preditors.   I had two baby girls born a couple of wks ago, pictures are on here, ive got another two sows hopefully ready soon which im very excited about, there run looks fantastic, very natural for them. nickyx

Hi Nicki, They are gorgeous arent they, yours are lovely colours. Miss Brahms is due any day now. Also, I collected my new rabbit with 2 babies of about 6 weeks on Wednesday. I had taken the male from the lady when we saw that the doe had given birth
too flippin late they had already thingymajiggied and she had 5 more babies on Saturday :ohmy: :mad: ::) I have gone from 1 castrated Bunny called Brian to 10 bunnies....in 6 weeks. These are the older babies:
a little boy me thinks, called Remy

Careful Jelly, there seems to be a lot of reproducing round your way  :ohmy:

I just love those baby ginnies --  blast from the past for me as we used to breed them. Adore the way they cheep and whistle to you.  :D
