A pet I adopted and two months later...

We welcome 4 bubs ๐Ÿ˜Š 3 sows 1 boar.

When me and my daughter checked the bubs this morning on a quick look I said to myself "this can't be" and still doubting thinking he probably have white spotting somewhere else in the body. Then as my daughter held the bubs one by one I heard her said "Dad he is a golden agouti boy and no other white on body just the white on the face" so I went to check him out myself! ๐Ÿซจ๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

This boar is quite special as I've seen him in my dreams few years ago! I always day dream of it too! Never thought he would pop out 3 years right on my stud. I feel weird as it's too specific as even the colour in my dreams is the same so I'm not sure if I just think about it too much and the "piggy fairly" just give in and finally gifted it to me or the stars is just aligning. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ What do you guys think?

Thank goodness I adopted the momma pig! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Golden agouti with just a white strip on the nose.(like a dalmation cavy except with a solid agouti body)

Having my lunch at work yesterday then I've seen this being advertised for adoption! So we picked him up this afternoon... a baby abby (pet) ๐Ÿ˜Š
He look so small for his age I asked the owner but she is not sure. Was been told early June but he looks like he is only 8 weeks old. One thing for sure his fur is rough to touch already :)

When a friend from work wanted to rehome her daughter's pig and I got asked.
and now...

Welcome to the Yhurkatha family Teddy mate!

Had to trim the fur on his bottom end so it's doesn't tangle/matte.

It's a long hair I know! ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

Can't sleep at all. Excited and also worried at the same time this coming summer ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จโ˜บ๏ธ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ™„
Hopefully the $$$ newly installed solar panel will make the pigs (and my cats) happy this summer so I can keep the AC on the whole day for them.
I don't want a repeat devastation last summer it had given anxiety! ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ

When you thought you lost all your abby line and then a person who adopted some of my "not keepers" months ago suddenly contacted me and wanted to rehome them back to me as their life situation changed!
So I excitedly said YES I'll take them back 100%!!! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿคฉ
Now I just need to breed them again to continue with my original line :)

Unfortunately here in Australia I can't find any video of any cavy judge explaining while they're judging.
I found this video (not sure which country) but just to give everyone an idea of what we do at cavy shows.

Growing nicely! A little over 2 weeks old from today.

Looking like I'm getting some show cavies there.
I know they're still on their fuzzy coat but at the moment the Dalmatian line rex has noticibly having the most rough to touch fur amongst the rest.

You might think theyโ€™re just a humble children's pet, but guinea pig breeding is serious business with owners going to great lengths to prepare their animals for show.
