Eat a lot and drink a lot doesn't mean they pregnant I guess.
They eat none stop like gold fish as I observe mine ( not sure about others piggie ) .
My daughter drink more then she usual does ..
Maybe can bring yours to the vet for check up =)

my piggies drink 500ml every day :|

i jz bought a pack of hagen pellet for them bcoz pet shop nearby my home dun sell other brands but I have no time to go visit PLC in Sunway. They seems dun like it if compare with Kaytee and Oxbow which i fed them b4...
and I found Hagen pellet got very strong smell, just few days only i already cannot tahan must go grab oxbow pellet this weekend

waa something moving? that could mean something... if she is noticablely (did i spell tht right?) bigger and heavier since the past 3 weeks, than maybe she is pregnant...you can check with an experienced vet if you wanna make sure. but usually its easy to spot when a sow is pregnant...they became very round and the stomach is hard, like carrying something.

great summary there...i dont have trouble sensing my sow's pregnancy, but i do have problem predicting the delivery...this might help me in the future, thanks


owh thats the opposite for me, in my case my piggies love Hagen GP more than anything else...even if i buy other more expensive products oso they dont eat as much as they eat Hagen...maybe because the pellet is bigger in seze (nice to chew) and the hay smell is strong...i personally like the fresh smell of hay, its like the smell of a grass field after rain,,hehe sound poetic pulak

u be tahan wat smell? the pellet smell or the poo and pee after taking hagen pellet? mine also eating hagen pellet..

You are welcome babe =)
Hope it help everyone here

Mine piggie too ... they love Hagen a lot ..
They will choose Hagen if I give them a bowl of vege and a bowl of Hagen there ...
Different story if I put in cucumber there =.='
they will definitely stick to the cucumber until it's finish

P/S : Kaoru, you are from Klang too

Mine are luckily not that choosy. Their current diet is Oxbow for GP (slightly expensive, but its the most recommended brand!), this brand used to be on overseas only until PetShack started to sell them.

But if I'm out of Oxbow and have to use the cheap food I bought from the petstore near my house, they wouldnt mind that much.

I think the smell is from the poo pee after taking hagen pellet, now i am a bit worry bcoz they really dun wan to eat it that much...

That's why it is called Guinea Pig, eat like a pig! Non-stop eating...!

They are intelligent though, can recognize the sound of plastic bag, slipper walking foot steps etc.

wah, they r so smart...

true true....they will wheek everytime i hold a knife and the chopper board or hold a plastic bag...they always think i'm gonna chop some veges for them hahaha...yeah hv to control their diet actualy or they'll get too fat or even get diahrea if eat too much vege...but ya lor how to control if they keep wheeking and show their glowing eyes (i call that 'muka 10sen') begging for food...i'm too weak la....

any of ur gps like to lick ur fingers? (like dogs or cats) one of mine like to do tht..i usually let her lay on me when i watch tv at night...after i stroke her fur abit she'll reach my fingers and lick lick...hehe makes me feel special, like she's saying 'I love you~! ' hahaha XD
