I’ll be attending the Ballarat Country Show today. Feel free to swing past and say hi :) I will have a few piggies looking for 🏡 as well!

“Psst, did you know that tomorrow is the Ballarat Mega Guinea Pig Pet Show and Ballarat Country Show?”

Our members are all busy putting in the final prep and finishing touches for their cavies for tomorrow. We hope you can come along tomorrow, either joining in the fun and having a go at showing or simply spectating! Everyone is welcome!

See you tomorrow at Invermay Hall! Our hall is open for visiting at 10am. A gold coin donation for entry 🙂

It’s still not too late to enter with entries accepted on the day between 10am and 10:45am.

Vanilla Coke and Blueberry are growing so quickly.
These girls are both carriers but unrelated so each bringing different genetic diversity and vigour to my Baldwins.

A sleepy little mango baby for Monday 😍

Tofu’s first baby here 🥰 probably my best Sheba bred here to date. Now just to wait and watch while he grows 🤞🤞

A post I’ve been putting off but need to do 😭

These little piggies are all looking for 🏡 details are on the photos.

Please note these cavies are pet only and will not go to homes where they will be bred.

I will have some more older sows looking for homes in the next few months as my breeding herd retires. 🙂

Please note all my cavies come with a lifetime tack back guarantee, no questions asked.

Please PM for more photos and information.

I’m so thankful to Julie of Rugrat Cavies for entrusting me with this beautiful boy, Rugrat Lucifer.
He was whisked down from NSW in August as a wee little boy (thank you Leanne)! I’ve left him to grow and pulled him out for photos today and what a handsome young boar. 😍
Julie is doing some amazing work with her Shebas and I’m so excited to add these lines into my herd.

The best part about letting sows grow up at your friend’s place is picking them up 5 months later and being pleasantly surprised at their growth.
This stunning lilac and white argente sow is from my lovely Fizzarolli’s first litter.
She is one of my favourite colours to date 😍🥰

Nothing like coming home after an 18 hour show day to find more bloody boars in the alpaca pen 😭😭 how stinking cute are these lovely little bubbas though. Nessie has done a brilliant job. 😍
Might be crazy enough to coat the white bummed one. That’s now 5 to be coated for the next few months 😅😭 if any ANCC studs would like to swap some boars for a sow or two 🙏🙏🙏

Something very different was born in the caviary today 🥰 Carnivalé Vanilla Coke
The name gives away her father 😉

I bet Karma with final assignments done and dusted on Thursday, being course complete feels very weird 🥹💖🤞 However, Karma got the last laugh.

This girl was massive 1.4 kilos and I was certain she was carrying 4-5. I was absolutely dumbfounded when I got into the caviary at 5:30am and saw these TWO chunky boys looking up at me. 
I’m very grateful for such stunning boars and a very healthy Karma but I don’t need more boars🤣
Oh well I’m going to be doing some tough thinking. I have 7 lovely young boars here that are in coat and showable, that number is not feasible for me. 😩🥹🤣

Ivanka, also gave birth to a trio of beautiful black Himalayans. Very excited to have had a beautiful little show sow that’s caught my eye for next year.

Onwards and upwards for the caviary now 🥰

The race is on, will I finish my final assignments before Karma gives birth? 😬
Only 2000 words now between me and freedom 😛.
