I've heard the 4-h, what is it???
and that's awesome, thank you so much!
My two piggies have switched eek Jambalaya is way more social and Gumbo is way more reculisive. Why cant they both just be social ><
and im sorry for your loss, i lost a piggie too, i miss her alot (Her name was cookie, she was killed by my boyfriend's Husky crying )

I have a piggy!! her name is Chiquita (Chi-chi for short)
She's adorable.... Do you know your not supposed to give them cedar or pine bedding because the aromatic oils will kill them?
I don't recommend buying a wheel either, I bought one, she never uses it.
If your going to buy a harness, it should be a marshall ferret harness, it works wonders!!!
Any questions? I can answer!

try guineapigacademy.com
It gives helpful grooming tips, as far as a proffessional groomer, ask a local pet store, like petsmart, but really all you need to do (since yours are short hair) is wash them with warm water and some small animal shampoo, and clip their nails.

You shouldn't buy wheels just because they can't use them, but because guinea pigs spines curve downwards, and wheels curve up, so they both go against eachother, causing big problems for the pigs spines, which are more delicate then the wheel, therefore, they break first. Any actual guinea pig questions or comments, I can answer. I've been doing research and owning the fluff-butts for about 6 years. I own 3 sows.
