Just thought I'd share the cuteness with you guys.

sorry im new here, may i know what specimen of GP is this?

Specimen

I believe its abby type?

Hahahahahahahaha!
It's Abby type, like Tobby said.

something gone wrong with my guinea pig.

i have a box, seperate lane. i got 3 guinea pigs. 2 adult 1 newbought baby.
the baby is 3 week old. they usually do not fight at all. been living for 6 month already.

because one of the adult is doing excessing butt licking, i seperate it into another lane for like 4-5 hours. then i put back the adult back together with the another adult, then the baby alone into the other lane because the baby is still under fungus treatment.

then suddenly, one of the adult started teeth chattering, the other one just normal, then the one who started teeth chattering attacked the other one. i quickly seperate them. they are close to each other from the first month until now 6th month. do they have short term memory? @@ 4 hours seperated and they don't recognize each other anymore? =(

Added on April 21, 2011, 12:40 amnvm I really think they do have hard time recognizing each other.

first time I bought the baby, they always sniff the buff to see if it's female or male, after they confirm, they won't do it as much. then i seperate the baby again then back into the main ground, and they sniff again.

another time, i separate both adult, then back into the den, they sniff butt again (no fighting). that separation was like 10 mins. now 5 hours separation, they don't seem to recognize until I make approach to them, then they started to recognize each other.

one question the 3 adult wat sex? the newbie wat sex?

2 adult also male
newbie still unknown, but one of the adult after sniffing it didn't care about the newbie, the other one keep on sniffing non stop. the one that didn't care and show friendly attitude is actually the one who started the teeth chattering towards the another adult after 5 hour separations. strange huh? :-(

after they recognize, the another adult sniff the other adult, until he got mad he started teeth chattering again. now the atmosphere is normal back.

2 male obviously will fight after they know there are female or new underling la... i give u an example in human ok
2 guy never saw a gal their whole life , suddenly a babe move in, what will they do? sure they wanna go and check them out (in GP world check them out is butt sniffing ) after intro and courting ... the babe might like 1 guy more than the other guy.. so wat happen.. like most ego men.. they will fight..

case two--> 2 "gay" staying together suddenly a babe/a hunk move in... out of two gay there bound to be alpha "male" and "ladies"... then this alpha male or ladies go check some 1 new out.. sure la the other guy cemburu and fight again..

funny but true.. when u have 2 male GP never try to intro a female or male into them... they will have conflict out of sudden de...

yea i agree with you. until then i think better seperate the baby first since it is having fungus treatment.
now they ok liao. when the other one sniffing the other one, the agressive (the one who started the fight) now having a friendly run (still irritated by the sniffing but didn't attempt to bite him). i wonder why. he never did this sniffing b4 until the new baby come into their life. then now because the baby is on the other side, he keep on sniffing the other one (male). =.=!

i will tell u 1 thing.... ur 2 male will not be friend any more. occasionally they will fight liao from now on. that wat happen to my two male anyway... tat y i resort to giving 1 up.. unless u can satisfied both by giving them both a mate

my guinea pigs jst giv birth to 3 babiess~~!!
i am so exicted but kind of afraid that they will scared to dead...coz when they see me they is like shock like hell

i got something to ask,isit a must to seperate them?coz when i do so,the father is like so lonely and keep trying to escape from the new cage
can i put them together?


and wat should i do for caring the mom pig and the baby?
except from spamming hay for them

congrate

provide them pigloo/ something for them to hide.... and u better separate the father from the mother as the mother can get pregnant again within few hours... so be aware of that...

provide more alfalfa hay and more vitamin rich vege for the mother ....

what will happen if pregnant again such short period....
will influcence the healthy of mum?

The mum need at least 3 month rest from delivery date so that she can gain back her health and weight. Plus she will nursing her new offspring but if she got pregnant again she could lose her milk due to the pregnancy and the newborn will starve.

Remember that they need to stay with the mother for at least 3 weeks to make sure they know how to eat by themselves and to get enough milk from the mother. If you have male offspring then you need to separate them with the mother when they reach 3 weeks old.

oh my...later after work i have to seperate him from them again le
y should separate my grandkid with thier mom also?
that means i need 3 cages? D:...

and wodd shaving hyper hard to maintain...my guinea pig keep getting their leg so dirty on the shaving...D:
thinking of buying those cat cage and put toilet map on it...

if the GP 1st time breed...the mum will get a case no enough milk ?
if no enough milk will how?

use fleece/cloth bedding better.. low cost.. jus be sure to have at least 3 set change and clean nia lor..
u dont wan ur gran kid to mate with their mom right... it will produce in breed which is bad...tat the cost of breeding.. so when u wanna breed pls make sure u have enough place and time to care for them...

how_88:
no such thing la..

if your grandkid all female then it is ok to let them be with the mother. But if male then after 3 weeks you need to separate them. If not the male will mate with his mother and will cause inbreed.

Like xavi says. fleece is a very good bedding.

haha. I said if the mom pregnant again lor. Usually they will have enough milk la.
