Guinea pig

Our guinea pigs can be found in our Children’s Barn. Guinea pigs were originally found in the mountains of South America, but became domesticated about 7,000 years ago. Some breeds you can see here on the farm are; American Crested, Peruvian, Rex and Self Beige. They are very friendly and social rodents that are great for families with young children. They typically live from 4-6 years, and love attention. They can have litters of up to 6 pups, but 3 is average.
