popped in2 Aberdeen P @ H today 2 see if there was any little things for Honey and Harly's xmas. Normally I think it's not too bad anyway, the only thing that concerned me before were guinea pigs and bunnys in together. Had a lookie in on the bunnys 2day, as I normally do, and there were signs saying 'all our guinea pigs have now moved to Guinea Ville, beside the hamsters'. Went over there for a look, they've changed what was a huge avary, split it into 2 and in one there's a blue sign saying guinea ville and in the othe a pink one saying guinea ville, so they have their own space not with the bunnys :thumb: .
Still a couple of things tho
- 1 guinea was left in with the bunnys, and all the rest were moved.
- 1 bunny was in with some of the guineas. he concerned me, he's a long haired REW. Jst at the nape of his neck, and sort of behind his ears, he looked as if had quite a bit of fur missing (could see pink skin). Asked an assistant why he was in there and he said cuz he was getting bigger and had started 'scuffling' with the others. I then said I had thought maybe he was ill cuz of the missing fur - he said that long haired white buns seemed to have thinner fur anyway, but that sometimes the guineas pulled it out from there (but it didnt hurt the rabbit, was jst something they liked doing and he lets them :roll: ), not sure Im convinced by this. Also, the bunnys have hutches in there pens, in the guinea one there's them little plastic dome things, but he's too big to get in. Was trying to squash into 1 and the guineas were popping out the other side but he still couldnt get in .
On the hole, seems like a good move but Im worried about this 1 little guy. he was really friendly, I put my fingers through and he came over for a little stroke.
Oh also, they were all either lionhead or longhaired and had quite a lot of wood shavings through their coats, espesh the wee guy in with the guineas . What does every1 think? Should I pop in in a week or so and see whats happening with him?
