Genesis price is almost the same as Oxbow in a way. I tried Genesis before but I dont see any different in my babies. Hence I stick to Oxbow. Not to mention they choose Oxbow over genesis

Huhu since Totty left I managed to control the sadness already =.=

what happen to Choco?

Hind leg paralysis? glad to hear she is ok now.

Yup jerking around same like Luffy. It is really really sad since you cannot do anything.

My observation, both Totty and Luffy - RIP my dear boys, I get from petshop. While my Minie and Toffy (I get them from homebreeder) still active as a horse.

Second this. Just make sure your GPs received healthy diet. That will do

RIP Paige. Yes, 3 years old is actually like human 48 years old. So 4 years old is quite old for them already.
Toffy and Minie both is 3 years old this year.

Mine don't have any changes when I changed to Genesis. Finished the 4.5kg. Now back to Oxbow

haha I dont think so. I get it from their direct distributor

have you check the teeth? maybe the molar have grown so long until he/she can not eat.

Fleece liner is a bedding we can use for guinea pig instead of using other beddings like recycle pellet, hay or the famous woody pellet.
Bear in mind that fleece wont work alone, you need to line it with absorbent layers (eg: towel, mattress pad). People use fleece because of the wick effect where it will wick the liquid (in this case gps pee) to the absorbent layer underneath it. Paper or newspaper wont work as absorbent layer.

You need to wash the fleece at least 3 times with detergent without any softener (downy etc) because it will not make the fleece wick and the fleece wont be able to absorb the pee.

Fleece liner is a bedding it self. the one cover the wall is just a design that people use so that the pig wont burrow underneath the fleece.

Your guinea pig male or female? If you want to put same sex together they need to go through introduction to determine who is dominant. Normally people will pair with a younger guinea pig.

try to do it yourself
here is the link. Try using the special nail cutter for cat/small dog
warning : If you afraid they will know

you can get a younger male - a baby is easier
Try to put them together, not in a cage, in a neutral environment where there is no smell of others. Have to leave them and monitor - afraid of fighting. But normally a younger guinea pig will respect the older and let the older be a dominant one. here the link for introductions under the Adding a 2nd Cavy

Is she pregnant?

haha sorry..both my guinea pig suffer with ovarian cyst. One indication is the fur around the same area become very thin

Sharing my new setup

Shipping the wire cube will be quite expensive because of the weight. I guess the best if you try to look around at your local area.

most of the items I got from Daiso

Lol..hi emino

I bought at Daiso The Curve. I am pretty sure any Daiso will carry the C&C wire. Drain board however I got it from multiple place

Are they in the same cage all this while? And how sure are you both is girl?

I also have 2 girls. Yes, they did fight but not a serious one. For me if it draws blood, then it is a serious one. I rather separate them but put them side by side to get to know each other better. And try again with the intro.
