the skin need to cut away or not? ?

best age is 5 month above (500g above)

hagen wont cause poo wetter.. jus smellier .. due to the corn starch in it.. there is one more new brand same grade as oxbow.. will update u guys the name tonite after i go buy their hay.. cheaper from oxbow by 10 cent lol. but for their pellet is rm2 ringgit more than oxbow. wet poo is due to watery vege and fruit fed to them... too much.. i learn from my mistake on choco.. rupa rupa last time she berak cair and soft due to too much vege and fruit.. but now she ok liao finger cross.. lol

TRY TO FEED 3 VEGETABLE SERVINGS PER DAY. BE SURE ONE IS SOME TYPE OF LEAFY GREEN. PLEASE, NO MORE THAN 1 SERVING OF ANY GIVEN VEGETABLE!!

A variety is necessary in order to obtain the necessary nutrients, with one each day that contains Vitamin A. Add one vegetable to the diet at a time. Eliminate if it causes soft stools or diarrhea.

Limit fruits to 1-2 tablespoons per 2 lbs. of body weight (none if dieting) from the list below of high fiber fruits. USE FRUIT ONLY ONCE OR TWICE A WEEK. Sugary fruits such as bananas and grapes should be used only sparingly. Guineas have a sweet tooth and if left to their own devices will devour sugary foods to the exclusion of healthful ones.

This is an excellent site for vitamin content of vegetables: http://www.guineapigcages.com/food/Veggie-...ruit-Charts.pdf

(!)=Use no more than twice a week. High in either oxalates or goitrogens and may be toxic in accumulated quantities over a period of time.

thx.. DIY in myself.. as her fur quite thick so can layer cut..lol

wah.. this bating seller like famous saje.. any 1 know the exact location of this farm?

kaoru himura:
sure ... but i only know layer cut. other pattern i havent learn...lol

Kivaa:
choose the one which have the most cm squar....design wise is not a problem if u have the space to play with

ya i check as well there seems to hav a few guinea pig breeder there.. Most malay breeder there breed abby and american..

ow.. so u r the supplier.. got any other stock of gp?

ask u back lor.. big animal create more waste or small animal create more waste... more waste = more smell..
smell or not smell is up to u de.. if u jaga then wont smell .. if u dont jaga.. whichever animal u choose also will smell...
hay cost from rm15-50 depending on the weight..
normal 300-500g will be around 15-30 depending on hay type and brand
500-1.2kg- 30-50 depending on hay type and brand..
each pig will consume around 10-50g of hay a day.. so u do the math..

behind gp ear are bald de la.. but jus to assurance take a picture and show it here

if i were u .. this will be my design use cable tie to tie them together..

-disease from guinea pig wont affect human.. but fungus/ringworm wise --> it is a two way thing.. u can affect them.. them can affect u..
lice and mites wont jump host..

their pee is dangerous? where u hear tat.. ? their pee will stain yes..
some might show allergy to their fur or etc.. so if u have any allergy better check it out 1st..

anyway.. my babies piggies is almost 1 month old liao... and will soon need a new home.. any1 interested pls PM me.. i got 2 piggies.. abby type.. both male

u mean ammonia built up..
jus make sure u got good ventilation... air flow is a must..

yea.. jus the room u put them got air flowing in and out.. and u should be fine.. no worry there.. big cage system i advise u to use fleece type bedding liao.. if not u can also use toilet mat bedding.. but not advisable as they tend to stain their coat and ur piggy will stink..lol..
for mine.. i use fleece and a morning towel( white 1) the morning towel changed every 3 days.. so the fleece can last longer..

bugs? Wat brand u r using? I have never come across a brand which contain bugs.. Y not try oxbow or zupree.. Living world, chubbygarden,kaytee, american diner all are safe.. I pretty sure unless u got it from a pretty old stock.. Only buy hay which is still greenish in colour.. Dont buy thosw which are yellowish.. Those r old stock unless it is oat hay which naturally is yellow..

timmy and teddy playing dead...:
