We're starting up a new project over at GuineaPigz.com and we could use some fresh forum blood so if you're into guinea pigs go take a look around! If you know anyone who would like to join please send them a link! I'll send you guys GuineaPigz.com stickers once they're delivered.

I've never kept any, but I have a hairless friend named Stanley. Love the little sounds he makes. He tries to eat the hairs off my arm. ?

Some are cute... I wish I had one when I was younger, but I seemed to grow out of them. What if you initiated a project that’s focused on Reptiles? There would be WAYY more members. Just a suggestion.
Good luck!

He already has quite a few. Take a look at the bottom of the main page under "Exotic Pet Network."

I don’t see it, I’m in Mobile.
I meant something that’s focuses on Reptiles, just reptiles not just Tortoises or Bearded Dragon but all reptiles.

Edit: I saw what you meant.

They are cute but deceptively expensive too (a lot of wrong info out there--who knew? ?). I love their noises and they are TRULY affectionate, very interactive pets.

However they poop and pee--a lot!!! And the bedding best for them is the Carefresh, which you go thru like water if you keep them clean. They are also really delicate, finicky animals, and though I find them still far easier than keeping all these bulbs, lights, weeds, humidity, heat sources, substrates, and supplements straight, I somehow just MELLLLLLLT when holding Morla and she looks up at me--or ambles along the floor, leaving a small lake behind her....lol. ? (Ok, I definitely don't melt at that, but she's so darn adorable, I cope! This the small fortune spent on puppy pads!)

As for interest, omg....there are totally GP fanatics out there--just look at YouTube!

@Josh , you might try going on some of those channels and mentioning your GP forum. I'm sure you'd find interest!

Little side note, bringing my love for GP's and torts together.

Eric calls Morla, my tort, my "leather pig." I didn't get the reference, and he explained, "Her skin feels like leather. and she's your new little love, now that the GP's are gone. So...Leather Pig, she is!"
