Feed me, Mama!
This is one of the babies that I am handrearing. Right now, they can take about 1 cc at a time,, probably more later. These guys come out looking just like real little pigs- born with eyes and ears open, fully furred and adult teeth already in place. Gestation is long in these guys,, it averages about 70 days for my pigs. They will get weaned at three weeks, but start nibbling solid food quickly after being born.

i saw a daily show last night where they showed clippings from the guinea pig festival in peru. mike lpointed out the guineapigs they were eating and i hit him with a pillow. he still insists that he'd love to eat one one day, and that is why you should enver give us another pig, he might grill it!
i'm glad the babies are doing well so far.
