One method that worked with my skittish pig was to lay down flat on the floor with my hands hidden. Her curiosity finally allowed her to approach and sniff me or eat some food just inches from me. I think hiding my hands from her view was the key.

I’ve just adopted a little male guinea pig, who I’ve named Sir Chester. He’s not very old, but he had to be separated from the other guinea pigs he was with due to his aggression towards them, ultimately making him a lone piggy, which he will continue to be for his safety and the safety of other piggies. For only being home for a few hours, he’s settling in so lovely. He’s already out exploring his enclosure and feasting on his nuggets🙈❤️

Pedro and Callie together are just precious. Pedro seemed really protective and gentle! But, the highlight of the video throughout was Roxy in the hammock. Too ADORABLE!

It was lovely seeing Callie doing so much better in comfort level. I had to chuckle at Roxy in the hammock stand. She is starting to steal the show in the background

I’ve always wanted to get my guinea pigs on my lap without squirming up and down! My guinea pigs are so skittish! I’ve always had a fear on picking them up because they might bite me or scratch me! This helped me so much! Have a lovely day!(also the little comments are so funny!)

OMG I finally convinced my parents to get me a Guinea pig I am crying for joy 🤩

I love the little tuff of fur on top of Callie's head. It looks so cute!

Getting the piggies out together was how we it. Worked like a charm.

Oh, what a PRECIOUS LITTLE GIRL CALLIE IS!! My goodness, bless that little adorable piggy!

omg callie is such a precious baby and i absolutely love the pedro and callie duo

Hahaha, someone behind you seems to have destroyed the hammock and is sitting on the ground thinking "why I not up in air no more?"

I loooove the narration!! Keeps me laughing, so cute...😆🥰

It;s so nice to see how Callie has settled in and enjoys her cuddle time. She's growing! I like how your nails & the blanket match.😉

Callie looked so sweet cuddled up with Pedro. Thanks for a lovely video Sarah xx

their little squeaks 🥹🥹🥹

I am obsessed with your videos. I impulse (not really, I got them with the intention of learning on the go-- to the extent that the pet store cage lasted two days, and one of those was when the award-winning, vet-approved pen (much less dark and narrow) was already in transit, and within an hour of getting them home I had pet insurance and, even though they seem healthy, am gonna take them to the vet for a basic checkup once they've settled in) bought ten week old guinea pigs last Friday, and have been binge-watching your videos all wheekend. They're a huge help. Pumpkin and Persimmon (after the nifflers in Fantastic Beasts) are very grateful!

Callie is the cutest girl piggy ever born - what a treasure!! A joy to watch! Thanks for sharing such darling videos of her 💛🤍 So wonderful she was adopted into your loving piggy home! So cute how she cuddled up to Pedro 😍

Callie is utterly adorable! Very imformative video aswell, when I first got my piggies around a year ago I relied on your channel to show me how to be the best owner I can be, so thank you so much

I love Callie she is so adorable and curious! My baby pig is so shy but Il try these tips for sure!

Callie is so cute. ❤She looks comfortable with you! She has such beautiful large, dark eyes.

I just got my daughter two piggies for her 8th birthday! She named them Mal and Evie! Your videos have been very helpful!

Awww sweet adorable baby Callie... we love you so much already 💗

I was instantly distracted by the big pig trying to be in the hammock but too big and hammock on the ground lol. Cute piggies!

Omg, she’s absolutely beautiful! 🥰🥰

I'm cuddling with my guinea pigs while I'm watching this

I love how Pedro was snuggling her. So adorable! ❤️❤️❤️

Can I just say that the environment in this comment section is so positive? Like thank you for creating a positive space for cavy owners.

Pedro is such a good helper! Useful tips, thank you! 👍👉💗

I sit with my piggie blossom on my lap while waching ur vids and when you were feeding your piggies she licked the screen and tried to wheek at you for food

Some like to curl up and nap while others want to play with you. Some like to read the newspaper during cuddle time, as long as there's colorful pictures.

my new piggie just loves cuddling 😢. ❤️❤️ I love him

Your videos are so very helpful. I found you 2 years ago as I was preparing to gett my first two boys. PRICELESS information! I do so appreciate you!

The new piggy is so precious!

Callie is so cute! I love watching what you and your piggies are getting up to!

I'm preparing for a pair of piggies come Christmas time. I just wanted to thank you so much for your videos. I have been researching already fir over a month and your videos have been the best source of reliable info and tips and tricks. Thank you so so much and i very much look forward to your future videos.

I have 12 piggies! And only one of them enjoy spending time with me and eating out of my hand, I have 6 baby piggies so this is very helpful, thankyou!!!

Oh my goodness, your baby is just crazy adorable 😍

Callie is so cute

Thank you for your information🙏

Your videos have helped me so much😊

Hey you :) Do you have a video thematising how to make the piggies like each other? I recently got 2 ladies and I dont know what to do, to seperate or not and stuff like that. Would be gratueful for tips

I love your guinea pig pattern bed! It's so cute!

Awww Callie looks so relaxed and cute on your lap, and the little boop you have her 😀 4:34 Thease tips will really help me! Sadly I do have covid now, but this video really cheared me up! Just to ask, what shampoo do you use/reccomend? I saw one on haybox but Idk if its the best one. Anyone you get I will buy! Anyway, have a lovely weekend! ~Beatrise

Hi there. We just bought our 2 sweet black Abyssianian female guinea pigs (3 weeks old) and we've had them a week and a half. My daughters kept noticing white stuff on their hair and when I finally looked I realized they were moving around. They are tiny and white and moving fast. They look straight (not curved or bulging at all). I contacted the breeder and she said they've had flea issues and I contacted a vet and they said they can seem them Monday and prescribe Resolution (I think) today. Do you have any advice? They don't look like fleas or lice from what I researched online but we've never had either so I'm not very well versed in this. Thank you for your help! We love your channel. It has been very helpful.

I find it helpfull when you just are starting lap time to male a small enclouse so you and your piggy can fit in. Over a period of 2 days you make it smaller and smaller and soon enough they enoy your presence and ingage with you. Olso food helps just like it was shoen in the video. Good job

She is sooo adorable 😍

Your guinea pigs are so cute! Love the video❤

Love holding my piggies

I was just about to write: "Its cute how Roxy shares the hay with Callie" ... 😅

My first 7 guinea pigs were absolutely lovely, no biting, they calmed down once you sat with em for a while and would even fall asleep next to me But my youngest is absolutely scared He bites really hard even when i just hold out food and he misses the food and hits the finger, sometimes i can walk by and everything is alright But then sometimes i slightly move and he runs for cover like a bomb went off

thank you for these tips - I have only had mine (Dominic) for going on 3 weeks ) and am still "learning" how to handle him and such. Also going to get another piggie as I have learned thru youtube info vids that they do better having "company" -preferably the same sex :) ---------------

we picked up our piggies today and yes they are completely frozen awww

Thank u for the advice

He says gimme that back

I just love genie pigs there cute❤

That cloth with the different coloured spots could be used for guinea pig Twister!

Ive been catching up on most of your videos and I gotta say I really appreciate your help. I had done a tone of research before getting my pigs, so while many of your tips are not new to me, a good portion of them are. Also good to have reminders as time goes on and I enjoy watching/listening to you and so do my pigs. My apologies if this isn’t the time/place to ask, but I would like your expert opinion on this “Circus Themed Cavy Cannonball Play Tunnel” that is at my local pet store (Also available online) one of my pigs isn’t very active and I have been using the tips in your video about how to get a lazy pig to be more active. The tips worked and I want to do more and i think trying this unique seeming product would be a good idea. However I’m suspicious that it might be dangerous as it is basically a cylindrical tunnel on a seesaw and I’ve never used it before. I usually don’t get stuff at the store as I tend to make things myself snd this isn’t something I think I could. Is it a safe unique toy that will enrich their lives or is it yet another dangerous product wrongly marketed to cavy owners?

Hahaha lm not baby pig ,killed me 😂😂😂😂Callie looks sooo cute ..well all of the piggies do ( trying not to make them jealous 🤷🏻‍♀️)

Kavee is great

Love the videos

Thank you so much 😁

Wonderful video.

So cute the piggy’s I say hi

Hi I'm constantly watching your videos to promt my parents to get me some guinea pigs but they are like no why is going to take care of them when we go on holiday? And then I saw my friend has some guinea pigs she can take care of the.

Since I was born in the 1970' and had guinea-pigs in when I was about 10, I usually wore large sweatshirts during lap-time. The guinea-pigs really quickly learn to get inside our sweatshirts and would sit next to our tummy like in a kangaroo's purse. I never know for sure if the reason was mostly to hyied from us, "ruff and naughty children", but I always hoped that they also felt coasy and liked the (human) bodyheat. Sometimes, Sundays and Saturdays mornings, we also put our guinea-pigs in our beds (under the duvet), next to us. Sometimes they'd run along the sides of our bodies and legs, but they usually finished by staying in the same place somewhere. I hope they felt as nice and lazy as we did...not confortable enough to wee, though, so sadly: probably not quite...

i think Pedro is kind of being a big brother to Callie

Please help! Had my guinea pigs for about 6 weeks and they are in the same room as me every evening but still run away when I walk past them, and I've got no chance of picking them up!!

Mine just freeze when I get near them and when i take them back to the cage they run out of my hand and they run away when I go to pick them up

So my beautiful guinea pig Peanut sadly passed away about 2 weeks ago. I have another guinea pig named brownie who never really liked peanut as they were never bonded, should I get another guinea pig? Brownie is doing much better and has been pop-Corning so much! Any advice???

my parents got two new piggies they are getting very tame now

This is so helpful. My piggies are so skittish. However, I do have loud twin 3 year olds, so probably why

Caliiiii

I am 9 years old and I am ur biggest fan and I have 2 guinea pigs,but till now i couldn't understand who is male and who is female, I am confused, I watch ur all videos, love you sis love from India❣️❣️❣️

If i held my hand out for then to see is there a chance that they will bite me ? I know they most likely won’t but its always in the back of my mind❤❤

I’m your biggest fan and I love your Guinea pigs. I have been trying to get one for a long time but the shelters are too far from my house and the adoption price is too expensive for me to afford, so please give me a tip.

My Guinea pig Ein always lays on me and doing weird cute noises ;3 but I'm soo confused why he drags he's bowl middle in cage ;-; and female Vločka is soo aggressive..

❤❤❤❤❤❤😊so cute❤❤

Can you do a morning rote.thank you

Callie is so so so cute and small I love her so much! Recently I had just taken in a pregnant piggy named Olive. She's really skittish and runs back into her hidey as soon as something or someone moves although sometimes when she thinks no one is looking, she sneaks out and nibbles on some hay or veggies. I have been reaching my hand in outside of the hidey for her to sniff since I don't really want to handle her considering she's pregnant and I could harm her or her babies but she never comes out and I'm kind of stuck with what to do. Should I wait until she has her babies and then start trying lap time or should I start now while she's still pregnant?

Can you make a video letting your guinea pigs watch Peppa Pig there is like a donkey or something and their names Pedro

i wait for the new episodes on saturdays! i am getting 2 guinea pigs and i ordered the midwest cage (my parents say they look like rats btw lol)

Sarah, can I ask you what part of England are you from? I am interested in regional accents (I'm American). And I've always loved the UK 🇬🇧. Thanks.

i just adopted 2 one yr old piggies and they're quite skittish so this was super helpful! i have noticed they wont drink from their bottle, how do i fix that?

I have three piggies girls who are 7 weeks old. Had them for maybe 4 weeks something like that idk tbh they still run and hide when we try to hold them is that normal for how long we had them for how do I help them?

Most of my pigs are tame, there is one. The two youngest girls have minds of their own but one......... She's even out of handling food motivated. When handling she doesn't want any of it but she's a massive personality, there is no lap time beyond food for her. Every new visitor she'll greet but not verbal often unlike the others.

As they get older they do calm down, not all Piggies enjoy lap time and some can stay harder to catch

We just got new guinnea pigs! we just started with guinea pigs, and we started lap time a couple days ago. There so adorable! the young one, mila, is now 6 weeks old and their habit is just like little cally! we got them both in a rescue! Only, in the rescue they didnt had water from the water bottle, but only from a bowl. we now put a bowl in the cage, but how do we learn them to use the water bottle? Thanks for the cage idea btw!

So I brought a new piggy from petco, I named her "Peppa" the worker that helped me with everything told me don't hold r play with my new piggy for 2 week because she young, So it was hard not holding her so I decided to break the rules and cuddle with her .. Will breaking the rules harm her...???

I'm going to get a 2 new pigs for the first time in my life and I am wondering what type of pellet I should be giving them. Can you please give me some brands that you use for your pigs since I am scared that they won't get all the nutrients that they will need.

My piggies are somewhat tame, they come up to me for treats and are excited to see me when I come in. But they still hate being picked up or petted, I'm not sure if I should try and just do lap time anyway but they may hate it if they're not comfortable being touched?

Hi there. Was just wondering, can you house Guinea Pigs in a Vivarium if well ventilated ?

My baby ginnypigs are 5 weeks so is it ok if I wait a week and start with this routine

So my Guinea pig has been acting different he’s been squeeling a lot and he has been squealing when I touch his rib space and he is easily bothered and his poops look died Mimi’s sharpens and squishy idk what is wrong with him

Hey one of my guinea pigs has Bumblefeet and it's bright red, not sure if it's severe though, we just clipped her nails and we're dipping her feet in epsom salt and warm water from today, i don't know what else to do since we have no vets in our city or neighbouring cities since guinea pigs are not really common here but can someone please give me other tips to help her because I don't know what else to do, plus some of the vets don't even know about guinea pigs so yea, can someone please give me ideas

2:59 what is they gray fuzz in the hidey hut?

Hi I have a problem with my piggy's I have two piggys in a 32 by 28inches I wunt them to be to gether but they haet each other. There boeth females one of them really dominant and the other one is shy I would put them to gether but I'm scared that one of them is going to get hurt what do I do
