Four little pigs posed for me

I managed to get a photo of the four little guinea pigs. I cleaned out their hutch this morning and gave them new bedding so they are happy little pigs tonight. They are much more vocal than I imagined and squeak and chatter away to us when they hear the back door open. They seem to expect food every time we appear.
The white one is the most tame and is called Lumi. Going from the left, the others are Hazel, Churro at the back, and Juniper. I prefer the smooth-coated ones like Juniper. The others all look like they need to ‘do their hair’. Did you get told that as a kid? Go and do your hair, my Mum would say.

Before looking at the photo I was expecting 4 little pigs - never mind (lol)
They know where their food comes from and that little chatter must be all about food.

Really cute I used to like the gerbil my son had when he was young It got out of his container once when we weren't"r home..and the cat was staring at it. Glad we got home. That could have ended badly;

Just now
It doesn't have the various cowlicks that the others have. I prefer that coat type too.

They are odd little characters. We had a couple when my daughter was young. They are eaters, aren't they? I like the black one with the tuft of brown on the back.

Guinea pigs are cute. I have seen them as pets here and they eat them in Perú.

Aw, aren’t they sweet looking? I agree with you, I prefer the smooth-hair ones. The others look like they’ve been scared.
My mom would say she was going to “fix her hair” or “get her hair done.” She’d tell me to comb mine if it needed it.
