Saskia does a QandA once a month and for about 1.5 hrs and connects with guinea pig fans all over the world to answer guinea pig questions from everything to …
One of my pigs has very pale and concentrated pee, I changed their diet to be more balanced in an attempt to fix it but it hasn't changed at all. Anyone got any ideas?
Update. I’m taking my guinea pigs to the vet on Saturday
Can you give me a link to a safe dandruff shampoo for my guinea pig??
Also thank you again for all the advice it means a lot. I still might have my dad call the vet. But I definitely feel a lot more relieved knowing it might just be dry skin and not something super serious and life threatening. Thank you
Pregnancy signs, get a starter weight on piggy and check a few times a week. A steady weight gain can indicate a piggy is pregnant. Also a higher water intake…love your videos! 🌸🐾🌸
Thanks from me and Philip for answering my question at 1:08:05! 🙂 He's 3 years old, so I might consult with the vet for how risky and/or complicated a neuter would be. In the meantime, he's going to move into a 2×4 or 2×5 C&C next to Casper and Caesar so he can see them through the grids and still socialize that way.

Thank you for giving me advice with my guinea pig.
I would also like to add that she did have dandruff. (I did check for lice and bugs. And didn’t see anything) And she is will only one other guinea pig. She has never been by my dogs.I clean their change once a week. I use wood bedding (aspen). So do you think I could just use a The dandruff shampoo?? Or would you still recommend the levetine (Sorry if I spelled it wrong). I would just like to make sure I don’t give her unnecessary medication.
Saskia, have you had much success with spaying older females that had reproductive issues? I had a 4 year old girl who had a uterine tumor and didnt recover post spay surgery. Maybe a video on post surgery care would be interesting?
My almost one year old guinea pig (two months away from being a year old) has a very small patch of fur missing. There is still hair there. But it’s a bit thinner. She lost about 20kg. But I know them losing weight isn’t a super big deal. I want to take them to the vet. But I also don’t want to go if it’s not a big deal. Because I don’t want to go to the vet and spend money and be told “it’s nothing to worry about”. I’m going to wait a week and check her weight to see if it goes down anymore. And Im going to keep an eye on her fur and stuff. But I would really appreciate any help.
Hi from Pennsylvania, Sweet Saskia My daughter adopted three Guinney piggies and they are so adorable but the last one she got two days ago. Her name is Maylee and she is so calm that it kind of scares me because I think that maybe something is wrong that I don’t know about. She is a baby maybe two or three weeks old and her back two legs seems very thin. She is so gentle . Should I worry because even when we pick her up she barely moves and makes no sound. She’s like either very scared or shy. Please advise me. I did ordered the vitamin c with the syringes from amazon last night. What else can you advice me? I’m a worried guinney grandma 😔 How can I send you a picture?
Hi, I badly need an advice… my guinea pig have one very wobbly bottom incisor, he is eating but i have feeling it is painful for him. What should i do, should i pull that tooth out with tweezers or just let it fall out by itself ? Also i'm afraid that he may swallow that tooth accidentally. I have to point out that his upper incisors are very short (5mm) and bottom incisors are kinda long (1cm) and also his mouth ceiling is a bit swollen, i guess because long bottom tooth irritate it. Every advice will be appreciated. Thanks.

You might have answered it but I missed it. What brand of Timothy pellets do you recommend? So many have everything but the kitchen sink in them.
Love the page and thanks in advance!
Saskia, you mentioned putting CBD directly on a piggies paw, is it safe for them if they ingest part of it?
Is the tail make the 🐖 disabled
Do they always have a pointed but or tails
Aspen is in the U.S., It's very popular for reptiles & snakes 😊
I use it for my ball python & I put some in my mice enclosure.
Aw…I'm so sad I missed this live, but thoroughly enjoyed watching. Great advice as always, Saskia 💙
