Guniea pig problem

21 14:44:50

Question
I have recently purchased two baby guniea pigs and was wondering how old they have to be before I can put them outside in their run on the grass as I am worried they will get ill if they are too young and their immune system hasn't fully developed. They are about 6-7 weeks old. Please reply asap thank you very much. Yours Sincerly Suzanne

Answer
Hello Suzanne

You can put them out in there run right away there shouldnt be any risk of them becoming ill because some guinea pigs are kept in outdoor hutches and raise babys without them becoming ill.

Hope this helps if you have any more questions feel free to ask.
