just make sure the surrounding temperature is normal will do.
if too hot, can think of bring them go cut their fur shorter.
currently i switch on the fan when the weather is too hot and gv them suffient drinking water.

Hmm...i been thinking if you spray into the fur wont make them catch cold meh?how old are your guinea pigs?Maybe you can just remove some of the hidey la..my guinea pig still stuff themself into the hidey even weather is hot...cos they get too attached to the hidey already but now they can just sleep without any hidey.Or another way will be putting bricks...near the water bottle...and they will just lying beside the cold brick...

It is very hard to find fresh green hay here, I want to ask anyone ever feed those lalang from roadside to their guinea pig?What is the name of the lalang cos I afraid later feed wrong one mati kudasai pula... blink.gif

I pm'ed you his FB page already hehe...

and lalang from roadside if its afected by car smoke...cat shit, dog shit.... all the nonsense then better dun give. Unless you got own garden or own pot, grow urself the lalang there, free of pesticides and other dirty thing. then its okay! I got one backyard haha...so i give them the grass hehe...used to let them run free, but i read forumer say let go at places with dirt will have many mites infection oh...so i stopped..now growing my own wheatgrass for them =)

same like mine la...but it took a week to grown all long enough for them to eat...I am impatience la..my wheat seed going to expire in Oct..so have to grown them in bulk lo...so maybe a few weeks my gps can eat grass to ganti their vege la..suka not suka also eat. LOL...force them already.

Punished your gp? blink.gif Actually rarely I punish them unless really really geram la...i cubit the back of their neck and it will wheek loudly. Then will run inside the cage...but they are like children...after half and hour it will run and play and eat as usual...but when u touch it it will wheek (manja tone) towards u...sound like say sorry la.I will cuddle it back and talk to her gentlely. Well, luckily she is smart la never repeat the same mistake...been having them for so many years they are like my babies now...sometimes work work I missed them...LOL...i find myself crazy over guinea pigs...i can stand at the pet shops just looking at guinea pigs for hours...they are so adorable dun u guys think so?

Kangkung stems do take note of split it open cos afraid for leeches inside it will be harmful to your gps...I only feed once a day on green veges...and put hays and pellets as usual they only eat hagen pellet even i buy other brands and expensive one...they just dun eat it even I dun add hagen just new pellet it wont eat...then once i back from work will wheek until my housemate asked u torture your pigs ar? They are asking for vege,pellet and water in a rude way...u starve me I scream at u...hahhaha gals ma emotional one...i feed three vege but usually corn, carrot,tomotoes or carrot, sawi,siew pak choy or siew pak choy,tomato and kai lan...they love siew pak choy,tomatoes and japanese cucumbers...They only eat the soft parts and left the skin only...other green leafy vege only eat leaves stalk in the cage with their outputs...

All GP lovers,

Can i know how to determine and confirmed if my GP is pregnant? We only left her to be together for less than 3 mins and yeah, the male kinda raped her and 'picit' on her fur. But the female GP seems to be fatter side ways and suspected she pregnant. She's still so young like maybe 4-5 months. Is that even possible to pregnant at this age?

Yes, best time for pregnancy is adviseable 5 months - 7 months...as young as almost 2 months also already can get pregnant! and it is better for them to reach 500g before getting pregnant...but if urs sudah kena...den nothing can be helped. You can touch around the belly, if u can feel things movings, shapes, and stuffs like this then 100% pregnant sudah. It will keep grow grow continuously de oh... so shud be very obvious by then. Read up more ya haha..if really sudah lahir anak...den male must be seperated oh~

Jaroque, u are visiting guinea pig farm in Banting? Can you please take some photos about the farm?Would love  wub.gif  to see the environment...I saw one breeder from Indonesia from Fb and then she got alot of breeds...really interesting and beautiful.I asked for teddy before and cost RM500 plus....I terus pengsan.. rclxub.gif  so now i dun dare to ask for the prices anymore...import from Indonesia already so expensive how abt those in pet shop imported from Holland...I am looking for Coronet actually...I saw peru from Amsterdam cost RM188 in a pet shop...hmm....are they overcharge?I never regret of choosing short hair guinea pig at least less hassle on the grooming part...LOL...easy to take bath and care as well.

It is very hard to find fresh green hay here, I want to ask anyone ever feed those lalang from roadside to their guinea pig?What is the name of the lalang cos I afraid later feed wrong one mati kudasai pula... blink.gif

Just a piece of advise and hope you dun get offended...takecare of yourself first before others...dun just buy a pet as a toy to play...they also have feeling...Make sure you are financial stable and mentally ready then only choose the pet of your choice. Having a pet is a life commitment and have to be responsible for them...Think carefully... smile.gif

this 1 for sure u mean PLC- pet lover centre kan? not really imported from Holland... locally bred 1 la..

Duduk diam diam kena patuk..sure ma angry. but after a while they will just play with each other again.
