American Female Guinea Pigs Highlights
- Social & Gentle Companions: Guinea pigs are highly social animals and thrive in pairs or small groups. They are known for their gentle nature and are generally good with children when handled properly.
- Dietary Needs: A balanced diet for guinea pigs includes high-quality guinea pig pellets, fresh hay (timothy hay is ideal), and a daily portion of vitamin C-rich vegetables and fruits.
- Lifespan & Size: With proper care, guinea pigs typically live for 5 to 7 years. They are small rodents, usually weighing between 700 to 1200 grams.
- Housing Requirements: Guinea pigs need a spacious cage with a solid floor to prevent foot injuries. The cage should be kept clean and provide hiding places for security.
