    how cute are these!!!!

    I recently went to a rattery that I found online. My breeding colony decided to go on a 3 week strike. Soooo while he was counting out the feeders I needed I noticed something in a rack that didn't look like rats. So I had to ask. They were skinny pigs! Never heard of them never seen one. So I asked to check them out. I went home and told the wife about them. She looked them up online and well needless to say I returned the next day (today) and brought two of them home for her. lol I will be posting on the inquiry section for BoManleys rattery as I feel he met and exceeded my expectations from a small feeder operation. but enough blabing heres the adorable little pigglets.... No names as of yet the wife is working on that.



    and of course after our trip to a pet store for supplies:

    I am a HUGE guinea pig fan and have always loved skinny pigs.

    My friend, Those are hands down THE BEST skinny pigs I have ever seen. I am very jealous! I would love them in my collection!

    Good job

    Cool additions! Hairless animals creep me out (cats, rats, birds that pluck themselves, now skinny pigs, ACH!) but they're still interesting!

    Huh, I have never heard of those things either. Are they just hairless guinea pigs?

    They sometimes will be patchy, or have hair on their face or around their head!
