Where do you buy your Guinea pigs? I’m looking for a long haired Guinea pig but the nearest groomer to me only sells short haired Guinea pigs. Should I consider just buying my Guinea’s at petco or pets mart?

I adopt from guinea pig rescues. They occasionally have long haired pigs like Nacho, probably more than pet shops will. Plus there are many down sides to buying from a pet shop (I have a video on this "where to get your guinea pigs from"). I recommend googling to see if any rescues near you 😊

I had mine for 6 months now (one of them 2 months) and its slowly getting better, I am a bit scared to handle them proper as they are really skittish about that and ah I feel bad. But I can pet some of them a little while feeding and I handfeed them and most of them come running for treats. Its a lot better than it used to be and that I am proud of. I been keeping up w their haircuts and nailcuts too despite it being scarry. And had to give some of them a bath too, which actually wasnt too bad. I hope we can work up to handling soon. Some of them are definitely more ready than others. One only just started coming out for food sometimes, shes super skittish. Then our newest one, a neutered boar has almost immediately been super confident. I do love them a lot even though they only like me when I feed them 😂

I got two guinea pigs for Christmas and I would watch your videos everyday. But then we had to sell them a month or so after we got them. I miss them so very much, and I want to try again with guinea pigs. But they are very expensive and I think I ruined my chances of getting guinea pigs again. Well when I sold my guinea pigs, I stopped watching your channel. It was so hard because i love your channel so much! Today was the first day I came back to your channel and it was very hard. I was getting back memories of Regus and griffin ( my guinea pigs) but your channel has helped me through it and I want to say, thank you!

I recently got a pair of bonded sows to bond with my boar (he and his brother had to be separated) and they were so terrified they didn't move in 24 hours and went into stasis. I gave them the night with as little noise as possible as the environment was very different to before but in this case it was good i did try to handle them to check on them. One had completely been soaked in her own pee from being too afraid to move then obviously ill from not eating ;; They had a week of meds and critical care they are both so lively now they've had a couple of weeks getting used to me, my flat, and also the boar I bonded with them. I'd recommend getting pet cameras to anyone new to it too as you'll get to pick up on behaviours to keep an eye on them as well.

I love your piggies they are so cute! so much personality. I also love the little guinea pig captions. always makes me smile. I have Himalayans, Peruvians, alpaca, two coronets, two texals, and various buff color varieties. I'm still learning about the different breeds. My alpaca "Frodo Baggins" and my coronet girl "Pearl Harbor" are my two favorites. Thank you for sharing this advice with us! My Himalayans have arrived from interstate and had a long journey to get to me, so are still settling in and getting to know cage mates etc. and getting use to the grain mix I give them. It's so much for the poor little dears to get use to.

I had my piggies for a year now and they still have that prey response and hide whenever we pass close. They are very friendly when it comes to food and dont mine that i clean the cage, but I dont like that they seem to fear us the rest of the time. Any advice on how to make them relax when we are just there and not interrracting?

I'm also experiencing the same thing with my 3 guinea pigs. I've had them for a year now, and they are very happy when they receive their food, but run when any human enters the room. I am also looking for some solutions that can help me and my guineas have a better bond together.

also, another thing with tip: 1 is, you can also just use vinegar and water and mix it up, and it will do the same thing that F10 does with the water soulution. Just a tip. But yes Sarah thats an AMAZING idea ive never heard of that and thanks you!!

I have a long haired guinea pig and I bathed him once before - he was the goodest during the bath itself but the afterwards....... he was a panicking a lot with the damp hair, i think he was afraid that something kept touching his bum. He would run around frantic or press his backside against a wall or a corner, creating tangled hair in the process. I was afraid that his little heart would give out because he wouldn't stop until his hair was dry enough. It was so traumatising for both of us that I decided to just cut his hair regularly. He is a bit dandruffy in one spot but i just monitor it..

I have 2 Guinea pigs they are in a pet shop cage 120cm by 60cm I know it is not enough as I have 2 boars so they need more space but my parents think it’s fine and are now on a desk as we got a cage stand and was so unstable it jiggled every time they slittly moved as they tend to popcorn and purr and groom each other a lot . But when I get more older I want to give them a big room to them and there stuff as they have stuff in the shed and in under the desk they have so much but they are sooo cute . Cause online I got told that they needed this size but I got the cage literally before getting them so had to get something that was considered appropriate but recently I have found out on kavee that boars need more space but we don’t have that much space where they can go in y room as we have a puppy it has restricted the amount of times I get them out but they seem to be enjoying it less and becoming less skittish as they can’t hear people walking past all the time but since all my mental health problems I just want them to know I am trying to get past it again but I feel bad them not having a big cage. Please any advice would be very helpful.

Have you considered that by not picking her up and forcing some interaction upon her you have allowed her to be more scared for these past months/years? Rather than just a more scary few days and then a much more confident experience after

@@user-zs8yu4bc9t I do pick her up and handle her. It's more about her letting me pet her in the cage. I've been doing Saskia's method of gentle taming for months and take her out quite often. I rescued her from a horrible hoarding situation and she is just a wild thing. She's still very skittish around others but finally warming up to me.

I have a skittish pig that is the same. She will let me pick her up but she is definitely not relaxed on lap time. I have had her for a year and she is braver but I think it is her personality type. I will keep trying but I think some piggies are just not fans ☺️

This morning I put a soft hidey my piggies havent had in awhile, so my little one Nugget was checking it out and so focused on chewing on it. I gently 'grabbed' him with one hand and it startled him and he kicked and made a little squeal but when he realized it was just me he didnt even move away lol! Ive been putting my hands in the cage a lot, even for no reason just fluffing up hay or adjusting mats. Ill even do some sweeping and get them used to my hands reaching into the cage. The more they see your hands and realize nothing bad happens, the better! Ive only had my piggies for 6 months and theyre already getting used to me and when I walk into the room they don't tend to run to the other side of the cage as often.
