chock is a good mentor for spike. he puts him in his place when needed. spike needs that or he does chocks head in because he's so full of energy he wants to play all the time. guess its because he's little still
bless him.
He is always hungry to especially for veg.. and i get lovely loud wheeks out of him when the fridge is being opened :D

i was playing with them in their pen last night
i put a towel on my lap so they could hide underneeth it.
i had both pigs on my lap at once at one point, fighting for snuggles
so sweet
i love having my piggies and dog, i'd be lost with out my animals i think
they give me a reason to get up in the morning aaand to keep going with life...
sorry for any typos or miss spellings.

i gave Spike a little groom with a soft brush and he loved it!!!
Chock wasn't to impressed haha
Spike has a lot of hair for a guinea pig
I love his fur because of the rosettes he has...
he's really soft and silky and his fur sticks out from his body.
not sure what breed he is though
he has curley whiskers and he would eat me out of fridge and home if he had the chance lol

Spike is coming on leaps and bowns
he will take veg out my hand now bbecause he's seen my other pig do it so now he's coppying chock
he doesn't like being picked up very much but once he's in my arms or on my lap then he's fine.
any tipss as to how i can not freak him up when i'm trying to pick him up.
thanks for your responses in advance...

Some pigs never get over that. Cookie's still that way years later. I just move slowly and try to be as reassuring as possible!

I use a carrier to try to lure them into (it is a soft carrier so there are usually less problems trying to get them into it). Sometimes I have to kind of corral them into it; it seems less frightening than grabbing and lifting usually.

Chock doesn't really like being picked up so spike has picked that up from him.

Spike and Chock were sitting in the cage side by side so it meant i could stroke them both at the same time
Spike didn't run away like he usually does, he just sat there and let me stroke him.
think he did that because Chock didn't run off when i started stroking him. I guess that is what you call progress :D
