I know i havn't blogged for a long time, because i have had lots of homework, but what has just this minute happened was incredible!
I have two guinea pigs called Boing and Scruff, Boing is mine, where as Scruff is my brother's. so here i was, working on my platform example/game and i hear this quiet *cheep* *cheep* sound coming from their cage which is next to the computer, at first i didn't know what it was, so i had a look, Boing was sitting on the minneral lick, and making the noise, it grew in volume over about a minute, and sounded just like a small bird.I had heared about this before in a book, and apparently, it is very VERY rare! Even some of the most experienced breeders havn't heard it, where as these are my first guinea pigs and they are not even a year old yet!! we caught the event on a sound recorder on my mum's phone, i tried to capture it on video on the comuter, to no avail, due to a slow webcam (*damn!!*)I am so lucky to have seen this as it is a once-in-a-lifetime (or more than once-in-a-lifetime) event! i feel so proud of my Boing!! Scruff, my brother's guinea pig just sat and watched her,transfixed he was, silent and seemingly cautious.hope to blog again soon!small signing out

Combo breaker, because I wanna actually comment on how cool having a chirping guinea pig is. It's unknown why they do it. I have a hamster, and they make no sounds whatsoever.
Hamsters are just lazy scumbags. Even chinchillas make noises.
My family took care of one for winter break and it chirped all the time when it wanted food/who knows what.
