Foster Piggies

[Catherine]

Suzie is a wonder worker when it come to bonding piggies. I guess it is like kids at a playground. Because it is neutral territory it is easier to get them to bond. Also if you were there they would have been playing to an audience. Without you there, they could work things out and establish dominance. Is there a head female in the group?

Cecil will a perfect addition to the group. The girls are going to love him. You keep the male separated from the girls for a long stretch. Better safe than sorry. You would hate to put him in too soon and end up with pregnant girls.


You are right, all this bonding does solve the problem of ending up with a solitary guinea pig. If you can get the group working as a herd you might be able to add new piggies in the future if you need to. You would only have one pen to clean as well. That would be great.

Keep us posted.
