For some reason that picture makes me think you are about to start juggling with them

Pigs or guinea pigs?

It takes blood and guts to be this cool but I'm still just a cliché.

I have to confess I was looking forward to something which may well have gone well with apple sauce.

I've never tried guinea pig.

I watched a programme recently when a group of people treked across some foreign land and were given roasted guinea pig for their dinner :-\

I thought they were going to be guinea pigs (but then I would - having 31 of them  ;D) and then I thought they were going to be the pork type.   They are so cute  :thumbsup:

I remember seeing Dan Cruickshank munching on one at the airport on his way out of Peru at the end of one of his 80 treasures programme.

Good photo Woofage  :), when do they start going "meep"?

The one on the left looks like it may grow up to be a Highland Cattle. Possibly.

Baby 'pigs are just amazing. Full coat, eyes open and already running around making piggy noises ;D.

Here's mum (pic taken 3 days ago).

great photos - I looooove g'pigs :D

I had a mini business when I was about 10 breeding them and selling them to petshops - I was up to about 60 at one point. Genetic experiments at an early age, mixing the coloured parents and seeing what colour the babies were. 

the perfect pets, IMHO.
