Johnathon is a Mum!
Yes, that's right, you saw it here first. Two male guinea pigs can reproduce, given the right environment and lots of love. We thought Johnathon was just getting fat on the good life here in Dougie's garden, but it turns out we were wrong. Just as wrong as the pet shop guy who told the little boy (who gave us the guinea pig) that Johnathon was a male. Grace would like to announce the arrival of Snowy, Pearl and Apricot. We are now a family of 12!

That is soo in the spirit of Mardi Gras.
Absolutely gorgeous. Don't guinea pigs have a really long gestation period? I thought it was months and months? What to do with them?
