Our new Lunkarya's!
Today was the day the (long awaited!) Lunkarya sows arrived from their old home in Wales to live with us here in Devon! I know, we always seem to be getting new Guinea Pigs, however we are practically living in our new Guinea Pig Shed (update coming soon!) all day, everyday at the moment,fussing all the pigs, and we love it! Our little group of three guinea pigs has grown so quickly in the last year... The line these lovely girls are breed from came from Dawbell Stud near Gatwick. This is the photo sent to us by the breeder, we haven't taken our own yet as we thought we would let them settle in first, but they should be up on our Lunkarya page at some point tomorrow! We have decided to name our Lunkarya's after cars (super cars mainly!) So introducing Porscha (right) & Mercedes(left). Anyway, we are so happy with them and will keep you updated on them!

I am a really bad blogger!
So since I last updated the site a lot has happened! I know (slaps wrists!) I am bad at blogging!
Where to start...
Firstly Mango had her first litter sired by our lovely boar of the moment Finnegan. They had a lovely litter of three in July (1 sow and 2 boars). All three lovely piglets have gone to their new homes. Sugar (the sow) went to keep another little pig girl company and our two lovely boy now named Chewbacca (Chewy) & Frodo have gone to live with Lucy in their new home together. You can follow them on their own blog! Go check it out!

If you look at Popcorn and Finnegan their markings and colourings are almost identical, very awesome but a bit spooky! We've never had any thing like that before.
Secondly both Harper and Horace have left us! Harper went to a family who had a lonely little 10 week old sow in need of some company after her sister had to be put down:( We love it when our guinea pigs make people happy like they make us happy so we were so pleased that we were able to help!
Thirdly our pigs have new digs! We have moved them in to a shed with custom-made cages courtesy of Mr. WestCountryWheekies. However I will do a separate blog post on this so watch this space!
Lastly we bought a new little pig that belongs to our cousins who live in France but will stay with us for the duration of her life. She is called Nutella or Nutty for short! We haven't taken any photos yet, SHOCK HORROR I know! We will post a photo in the next couple of days, so keep your eyes peeled!
All that's left to say is keep an eye out on our Lunkarya page as we are waiting on some new sows to join our growing group! Excited! Lots happening here so will hopefully post a bit more often!
