Sorry if i give a wrong info for it...cuz im not so expert on it...Juz get tis info from my uncle,cuz he got over 90+ Guinea pig at his farm...
Added on November 16, 2009, 12:39 pm QUOTE(Chubbyagel @ Nov 16 2009, 12:08 PM) Thanks for replying...well, yes they do have mites and i put medicine for them Advantage every 2 weeks...and today i saw their nose area like tat i bath them with Vinegar and water...I feed them Oxbow pellets...last time is with Hagen and then I change to Oxbow just a few months ago.They are active like usual..and eat as much as usual too...I tot it is fungus but no flakes if mites i dun see any black dots in that area... Hi my dear,i believe tat is fungus la...hmmm..how many GPs u have?...How many of them they have the problem?...If juz only 1,i suggest u better seperate it with other (Quaratine) & i suggest u better use glove to touch you GPs...Actually fungus will no harm for human,but if ur skin r sensitive,its will make ur hand itchy...hmmm...if the symtom getting serious with ur GPs,u better take it to vet...Or,u can put some vitamin on their water..Sorry i forgot wat the name of vitamin d..Cuz my uncle will use it sometime for his GPs which have infected by fungus..The GPs will heal slowly..Its costly if he bring them to vet,cuz too much GPs liao.. really worry la...

Hi my uncle farm is nearby Sg.Buloh Hospital..Which it is very 'kampung' feel..hehe..
 actually is not a GPs farm..Pet a GPs is my uncle hobby since when he was teenage, actually he is 1 of the breeder too...He always keep a nice nice GPs for breed..Sometimes he will trade his GPs wif Pet Shop to exchange some GPs food..hehe..cuz its quit costly for him if he juz only buy food for his GPs...So he juz do some exchange wif Pet Shop lo..  As i remember he keep 1 Boar Sheltie very long time oredi..Which is origin from Holland(im sorry,cuz dunno how he ship it to Malaysia)..  He always feed his GPs with a fresh grass(which they call 'cow grss')..hehe..all the time..cuz it cheaper than Hay & more healthy..He will feed his GPs a pellet once a day..Every once a month he will mix some vitamin on their water for them to drink..But im sure tat is not vit c..Cuz the vitamin he feed his GPs,is some of Vit tat human oso can drink..It juz like juice but is make by grass/vege..  And the GPs poo poo,he make it as a fertilizer for his plant..Now he was trying to plant Alfafa, but he said very hard to plant Alfafa in Malaysia maybe is because of weather problem..  On his farm,he got 2 "chi hua hua" & 1 "shi zu" is for sale too,he is the breeder for it too, few chicken, rabbit & normal dog  ...hehe...He natural bussiness is farming actually..hehe...  Btw i have a fren he got 50 over GPs,at setapak last time but he give all to his nephew,neighbour & frens for free,when he plan to come to KL for work..But he told me,from first he juz bought 2 GPs (1 is boar & 1 is sow)..His father got a very small farm too & then he juz put his GPs at his father farm & d.i.y some 'pagar' for them...After a year,there is bout 30++ liao..But he nvr seperate them..Cuz last time he dun have any knowlege bout the in-breeding..But last time he was juz teenage (17++)..hehe..now old man liao... |

QUOTE(Juztiny @ Nov 18 2009, 11:03 AM) My sister's rabbit was inside the cage, one morning she found the rabbit body was stuck in between the cage iron bar, one arm is outside of the cage, that shown the arm was pulled from outside till the rabbit body was stuck. No way the stray dog can come inside the house compound, she is staying in corner house, but she doesn't keep any dogs. So only possible is cat that attacking her rabbit. Hi Juz,So keeping GPs outside the house needs to beware of the possible danger. I am fully aware of this danger, that's why I don't let my GPs or rabbit roam freely in garden compound without supervision, my dogs are guardian of my small animals. They hate cats, they will shoo off the cats if they are on rooftop etc. In my neighbourhood, there are quite a lot stray cats roaming on our rooftop. Probably they are eyeing on my GPs too, but they won't dare to come down as my dogs are roaming freely in compound. There is an adoption of Rabbit at ADOPTION THREAD, u can suggest to ur sister to adobpt it as well... If she wish to get new one... Added on November 18, 2009, 4:04 pm QUOTE(Chubbyagel @ Nov 18 2009, 03:33 PM) I also dunno...all these while they only have mite attack so i put advantage on them every 2 weeks...but this time got mites on their faces and them flaky started to form...so that is why need some advise on this matter... I suggest u better bring them to vet..Before ur piggies condition get bad....This post has been edited by eif: Nov 18 2009, 04:04 PM |
