cry.gif Damn shit mad.gif what did i did on Jingle? why cant i be more carefull while trimming her nails?

I really can't stop blaming myself this afternoon as i was accidently clip too deep of her nails and cause bleeding. I give a call to hand

paws and check wt Dr.Jenny what should i do to stop the bleeding, and she told me use flour to press on the bleeding part for 1

mins and the bleeding will stop. Trying on that and it is really works so i have put her back to her cage since her babies was

looking for her but within 15mins, it start to bledding again cry.gif 

I was using the same way to stop the bleeding and let her rest on top of my laps for abt 20 mins then only put her back. I'm

really feel sorry to her and hope that she will be getting better.

Do you guys think that should i take her to Dr.Jenny there to have a check because i scared it might have any infection. doh.gif

Just checked on Jingle again while feeding her dinner, everything is fine and she is still as active as normal. No more bleeding on her nails but i just wonder whether is it ok if not bring her to vets as tmro i will have a teleconference at 8pm-9pm.

Thanks....yeah Choco having a nice brown colour....

Don't worry too much about the nail bleeding as long as it has stopped. Actually pet shops do sell a type of clotting powder for use in situations where nail bleeds bcoz of over trimming. I got one bottle of it but somehow after I got it, no incident occurred for me to test it out. Flour would do as well altho a little less effective.

Any sifus here can teach me how to determine whether my GP is pregnant or not? One of my GP body seems like getting bigger but i dunno she is pregnant or not because she eat alot everytime. I dunno whether she is getting pregnant or is her stomach getting big because full. Got any pregnant test to know it?

Sometimes when pregnant, one side will be more lumpy than the other side, and when you feel it gently, can feel babies moving around.

Maybe you can use it in between layers of newspaper. Then add wood shavings/ BC on top

Got anyone here allergic to guinea pigs? Not sure if its a common thing or not, but if after I cuddle my piggies, I will get small red welts all over my arm. I notice especially if I contact with any of their pee or even if they lick me, I get welts immediately. My eyes also itch if I play with them too long. Funny thing is I am not allergic to any of my other pet gerbils, hamsters or rabbits, just the guinea pigs.

Chabby's enclosure for nubby is doable.. it is open concept.. 100% proper air ventilation.. there is nothing wrong with it.. i am also sure chabby will need to monitor the surroundings if nubby starts digging or chewing any parts of it.. i think she did mentioned before, this is a temp cage.. besides nubby is being pampered so much by chabby lols~
meiixiin i think eric was just worried about you (he is always worried about ppl wub.gif)  hahahah.. yes give them time and they will adapt.. how is the progress so far? laugh.gif

Does the welts look as if lots of mosquitoes has just bitten you? Like thousands of welts on your skin? I had this problem too but it wasnt due of my piggies.. It was my sugar glider.. Generally when their nails, are long and sharp.. poking tru the skin or contact with it will result to welts.. Washing it with water will calm it down and later subdue.. Im not sure about the eyes tho =x never gotten that before.. perhaps you might want to see a doctor if these happens regularly.. I know my GP sometimes have dirty nails coz they like to play with their poo in the litter pan!  vmad.gif their nails will have a blackened tip.. so thats why i trim it every week now >< Your GP nails trimmed yet? Their nails sometimes carry germs >< cant avoid it~ only thing is to keep it trimmed..
*
Not thousands of welts on the skin, haha... is like 5 or 6 welts on each arm, bigger size than mosquito bite. It happen if my GP got a bit of pee stain on their fur, and I cuddle them, or if they lick me. I did see a doctor before, that time was the most terrible allergy to my GP, my GP kiss my mouth, and the next day I got hives all over my body.

OIC~ my daughter has some itchyness before (which i think was hives too).. we just put lavendar oil on it.. i just so happened to have it.. it calmed down really good. But i think if the welts dissapear a few hours later.. then its something that is not to be too alarmed off hehee.

I will get watery eyes when spend some time with them and then start to have watery nose too.. if still continue then I will start to have nausea...i think i also got alergic to their fur...When brought them to my bf place from Setapak to Kelana Jaya in that journey they are enjoying but i am the one suffering...even their pee also can makes me feel sick...so that is why i always clean the cage when I can see the pee patch...

Piggies are getting huge now...more chubby from day to day and my housemate also love them so much...buy them vege...hahaha she just likes to sit while watching tv and tell them stop fighting (if got) cos the cage in the living area.I might think of the BBQ fence cage...look very neat indeed.

Wow looks like I'm not the only one. biggrin.gif If I didnt keep their cage clean enough I'm the one that will suffer when I go near. Usually I wear mask when I clean their cage, haha... feel like I'm working in a hospital.

I use newspaper-->shavings-> newspaper as bedding for my C&C. I didnt use fleece coz my GP shed a lot of fur, and hard for me to clean the fleece. Some people wash the fleece in washing machine.

Um, fleece is the type of soft cloth that certain blanket is made of. I think Ikea also sells something like that.

Corn silk and husks is safe for Guinea pigs. You know those threadlike stuff and also the husk itself. As for the corn itself, those dried corn that comes in hamster food is a no no. Some say that small amounts of fresh corn is ok, but maybe its a debatable issue.
