Bought my little girl two female guinea pigs today - one is 10 weeks, and one is 6 months. Bought them home and put them in their v large cage (takes up most of the spare room to hubby's disgust ). They did about 20 manic laps of the cage then hid in the corner and haven't moved since - for four and half hours . We've left them alone so as not to stress them but they're still huddled together looking petrified. They've got a little house to hide in but they're too scared to use it.
I don't know anything about piggies, but I've been told they're very nervous at first, but will they be ok?? When are they likely to start venturing out to eat and drink? And how many days should I leave them before handling them?
Poor little mites
