Guinea pigs for sale
| Information: |
Guinea pigs originate from South America where the Incas referred to them as �cui�, which is thought to mean �little pig�.
They are a popular choice of pet for children as they are easy to tame and to keep. Guinea pigs will need water to be available at all times. They also thrive on grass, which can be substituted by hay or Lucerne. Pellets should be included in their diet and a mix of fresh produce such as celery stalks, carrot tops and peelings, small amounts of lettuce, cucumber, sweet corn and silver beet.
Each guinea pig should be allowed a minimum hutch size of 70cm x70cm. They will need to be cleaned weekly and fresh bedding supplied. They will live happily on their own, but if getting two ensure they are two females as males can fight. Guinea pigs breed from as young as four weeks of age � this would not be recommended. They live for 5 to 10 years.
