QUOTE(carolhyf @ May 5 2009, 11:25 AM) Choco used to popcorning when i cleaning their cage and feeding him food. After i changed a new big cage to Jasper, he used to popcorn now days. I think he is super happy wt his new cage because of more and more space for him to run ard and jumped here jumped there,but he seems dont really know to eat the Hay frm the Hay Rack(attached wt the new cage) because i old cage(fixed on the floor of the cage) is actually tray but in the new cage is rack(hanging). I have fill up the new hay rack with full of Timothy and Alfalfa hay on the 1st day when i move him to new cage but he didnt finished the hay(actually seems he didnt eat even half) and try to move some of the Hay to the tray that i used to give him last time yesterday night, he was actually almost finish it this morning when i checked him. Seems i need sometimes to trained him to get the Hay from the rack instead of the tray.  My GP seldom eat hay liao now a days.. But i'm feeding him the timothy hay pellet. Is it ok ar?

It's a bit late and been some time since I posted about me Guinea pig given birth and uploading the picture but here it is! the baby still very afraid of me and keep crying when I take picture of her. So I only snap 2 and left her alone....   Now I need to either get a. A bigger cage b. A homemade cage coz now got 4 guinea pig and they all eat A LOT! Haihz.... I might have to let go 2 of them either through adoption or sell. Anyone wanna take up 2 female guinea pig? edit: Also ah, remember that the GP baby leg got problem and bent over? Now heal liao. She started walking on that leg and the leg straighten up and is normal now. This post has been edited by reveur: May 5 2009, 02:47 PM

Jingle and Jasper love Hay more than pallet Their favour are 1st- Vegs. 2nd-Hay Timothy hay pallet is ok for them but they still need to take Hay because it will help to trim their theeth. Try to introduce Hay to them and need to be more patient. Added on May 6, 2009, 12:49 amWhen coming back from work today, i saw Jasper has finish the hay which i put into the food tray but the hay rack is still full Haizzzz....this Jasper ahhhh.....really dunno how to take the Hay frm the Hay rack lol This post has been edited by carolhyf: May 6 2009, 12:49 AM

Maybe for breakfast time you just feed him hay, and later afternoon or evening after he finish it only you feed the vege n pellets. If they are hungry, sure eat one..haha

As long as you have provide him hay, i think is ok lah....maybe sometimes u can provide less pallet and fresh veges,so that he will take the hay when he feel hungry. I used to do that last time when both Jingle and Jasper dont really eat Timothy hay but only take Alfalfa hay. I reduce the Alfalfa hay and pallets and stop giving fresh veges for 1 day and when they feel hungry, they will go and take the Timothy hay because that their only choice. I trained them to take more Timothy hay is because i know too much of Alfalfa hay will cause bleeder stone(for Adult gp).

Guys please take note.. apples are to be given as treats and given sporadically.. not too often.. Make sure to take out all seeds too! Maximum per day is about 2-3 slices~ per pig.. This is because apples are acidic.. and can cause sore mouths for the piggies~ @reveur -- you can post your piggies that are up for adoption at the pets wonderland adoption thread.. http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/443156This post has been edited by SugarCoatedCandy: May 6 2009, 10:18 AM
