LISTING REMOVED Harrisburg (Enola), PA: Peanut Butter is a four month old female guinea pig, white with tan spots, who is being rehomed due to allergies. She is timid due to not being picked up in her current home, but that should change once she's used to getting loved on all the time. She is used to other guineas and being housed in a cage like the one on this page: http://www.guineapigcages.com/howto.htm .

LISTING REMOVED Leola (Lancaster), PA: 15 guinea pigs being rehomed, a herd explosion as a result of a missexing. The guinea pigs range from three days to one year old. Guinea pigs are brown and white, largely, some are black, brown and white. GUINEA PIG LESSON: Here's how to sex a guinea pig: Boy or Girl?. Boys need to be separated from girls IMMEDIATELY at the 21 day mark, or else they will impregnate the girls. No fertile boys (21 days or older) can be in the cage with a pregnant female, or else she will be reimpregnated immediately after giving birth (i.e. back br3d). There is a 20% of death from br33ding for the mother.

LISTING REMOVED Norristown (Philadelphia), PA: Nice Cuddly male guinea pig being rehomed. Used to children. GUINEA PIG LESSON: Vitamin drops do not go in the water. They aren't water soluble so after about five minutes they just make the water taste bad and the vitamins have stopped working.

LISTING REMOVED Chalfont (Philadelphia), PA: Two male guinea pigs being rehomed due to a move. Both sweet, "healthy." One long hair, one short hair. They're bonded and used to children. Come with some accessories. Cheaper, Larger Cages.



* AAGP recommends quarantining any new guinea pigs
for 2-3 weeks and confirming the sex yourself.
Many sad accidents or "accidents" can be avoided this way. *
