Eric - Sept 23, 2011

This is Eric.

Eric (also called Darwin) by our son is no longer with us.

We got him from a show breeder of Guinea Pigs. Eric was one of the finest, nicest pigs I've ever known. A very solid pig.

Over the summer he has steadily been getting thinner, and two weeks ago I noticed he had a small lump on his side. Over the past two weeks that lump has continued to get larger. This morning he passed away.

His wheeking will be missed.

I expected four as per normal, but got six. they are small (as to be expected) I needed to do some quick renovating to their cage as they are small enough to get out between the wires.

Will be supplementing this litter with pumpkin.

Eric made me laugh

Eric made me laugh this morning.

I was giving hay to the bunnies and I hear WHEEK WHEEK from my quad of piggies.

I put Hay in with Eric and his current love of his life and he LEAPS off the top of his hidey hole right into the hay making happy noises as he burrowed into it.

He's such a nice but silly lad. :)

Spotty - November 20, 2009

Three pups born to Spotty.

She was NOT supposed to be preggers but she managed to be! I'm glad that all went well with her.

The pups are small but healthy. At this point looks like two boars and one sow. Time will confirm these details for me.
