Hi guys,
I've gotten my peruvian...this one is from Holland, and her name is Piggy. She's very timid, so I am taking my time with her...
Regards, ice

I saw her at Sam's at Marine Parade a few weeks back, but she was nursing her baby at that point of time...so i couldn't get her unless I get the both of them....but I was worried about being unable to take very good care of the baby, so I decided to look around first. Recently I went back and saw Piggy still there, so I decided to just get her, cos she's beautiful to me. I'll get her pic up here very soon!! And, oh, she cost me $150.

$150 is not too bad... how old is she? most pigs are timid when they first come.. just give her a few weeks to settle down and she should be fine.. ;D

Nope I din get her bb...I intended to get both as a pair but when I went back the first time the little piggy was sold off (I bought her on my third return)...anyway the shopkeeper told me they had been separated cos they were not happy together. Apparently the bb piggy started to chew on the mother piggy. Yeah I think 150 is alrite....not the best price though...I haven't brought my digital cam to take pix yet....gee...coming soon coming soon....

Yah...now I'm considering getting her a companion liaoz...but she's a little timid, and i'm afraid she'll be bullied.
Perhaps wait till I end my exams and move her back to my home...then I'll buy her a cage mate.
I'm more interested in Peruvians...but open to other beautiful cavies as well, any idea where can I check out other than Sam's? I've checked out the Pasir Ris pet farms, some of the shops arouud Serangoon, Boon Lay, and realised that the demand for cavies is no longer there....so kinda hard to find.

Perhaps you could go towards people whose cavies have given birth? I know of one person whose pig just gave birth about 2 - 3 weeks back.. a litter of 4... 3 are crested, and one's a normal smooth coat.. And piggy's not living with you..?

Yes she is....I'm staying in hostel mah...u did follow the thread in the other one? Under "Piggy Chat" -> "Suspect Injured Foot"
I'm moving her home to my 'real ' home...
anyway cos I jus started loving cavies about few months back, so have yet to extablish a group of frens with this interest...
I actually wanted to adopt from people, and dun mind paying a small fee as well...but nobody seems to have peruvians though. But I think I dun mind taking a look at other breeds.

Wellz..if you're interested in cresteds, which are quite rare as well, though smooth coats, just drop me a PM and I'll give you her contact.. If you like long haired breeds, you could try coronets as well..like Arnie and Sugar, Joyce's guinea pigs..they're in the Pigtures Gallery.. can go take a look
