The new pig will be afraid of people, but don't worry, the owners can get close to you after a long time as long as the pig is gentle contact!
Since the newcomer pig is more timid, don't rush to approach it at this time. Outside of adding feed and changing water, try not to catch him. You can place the pig's cage in the room where you are often, let him spend more time with you, let him see you, and slowly make him feel safe.
After a period of contact, the owner can try to get close to the pig by holding the fruits and vegetables that the pig loves to eat. If it doesn't come up to you, you can put the food down and let him eat it on its own. After a few contacts, the pig will have a sense of security.
I am willing to take the initiative to approach you.
Cultivate affection with the pig, gently stroke its head, and when it gets used to it, it will like your petting. Because the temper of the pig is not the same, and the time of being close to the owner is not the same, there are short and long, the owner needs to have patience to treat the pig gently, in order to gain the trust of the pig!
Personally holding what Piggy likes to eat and letting him eat it is a good way to enhance the relationship between each other. Talking to it while feeding it is also a very effective method. When it gets acquainted with you, it will scream loudly when it hears your voice, and if it is released from the cage, it will run after its owner.
In short, if the owner wants to establish a good interactive relationship with his own pigs, he has to work hard.

1. Feeding.
The correct method: before each feeding, speak softly, put the feed on the person and leave.
Explanation: Every time you talk can accelerate the pig's recognition of your voice and smell, and the speech before each feeding can effectively make the pig link your voice with food, and the pig is greedy, which can effectively improve the intimacy.
2. Snacks. The right way: a large amount of nutritious but monotonous staple food + Timothy grass hay every day, no matter how full, so that your pigs are definitely not picky eaters, and the straw stalks are eaten very crisply, about 10 days or so, at this time, 10 grams of snacks per pig per day are needed.
Explanation: Snacks can be corn husks, fresh grass, etc., but it must be food with less water, the digestion speed of the pig's stomach is not fast, and the water food will rot and spoil in the stomach.

Dutch pigs (scientific name guinea pigs) are inherently more timid, which is related to the fact that they are more cautious in nature because they are herbivores. Getting on good terms with Dutch pigs allows them to get used to the time you need, and different pigs take different methods of time, usually from a week to a few months. Stay with them more, just stay together without hugging them, you read a book or play with your mobile phone by the cage, etc., let them be familiar with your existence, occasionally feed them with snacks, you can give them a good name to listen to and remember, pay attention to the pronunciation of the name is best two words, the kind that is called out more clearly.
The name is called before each feeding, and the name is usually called in about a week. In the future, you can consider holding them to your lap, or doing something else, and then occasionally feeding snacks, Dutch pigs are timid and generally will not run away, but will only be stupid on your lap, but when they have to go down, put them down, this is a convenient move for them, put them into the cage and generally pee immediately, my family is like this. Dutch pigs are sensitive to sound, so try to train with sound as much as possible.

Watch him behave as you get close to the cage.
At first, no matter what he's doing, he will suddenly run away when he hears you, usually to a corner or anywhere he thinks is safe, and then stare at you. When you're far away, he'll come out slowly.
After a while, he will not move when he hears the sound of you walking in, which is the legendary petrification, staring at you as he walks away.
After a while, he will look up at you when he hears you walk in, and if it is, he will continue to eat or something. But when you're outside the cage, they look at you from time to time.
When he fully trusts you, you are at the edge of the cage in time, and he also treats you as air, stretching out his limbs and falling asleep, which is completely trusting you.
Of course, a little more close, you can train to call the name, call the name can come, touch the head or something, individual pigs will lick the owner's fingers, it is the closest Dutch pig.
My Dutch pig used to open the cage door to climb on my lap to pay me to look at the computer, of course, he sleeps mainly, if you want to be convenient, you can only go down into the cage and come up again.

My family also has a pair, it is recommended to buy some professional feed, pet stores are burning the foundation and buying, generally alfalfa, sunflower seeds, corn only composed of mixed feed, this is the first step. Second, prepare a special water bottle, there is a tube that can come out of the water as long as you lick it, they all know to drink, and they must use this, using a basin is absolutely not okay! In addition, add VC drips to the water, pet stores also sell them, of course, if not, buy VC tablets, grind them into powder and ration them, because Dutch pigs can't produce VC on their own
If you raise them, you should be good to them and don't be too stingy with money. Third, give some fresh vegetables and fruits every day, this is very particular, because they are easy to like the new and hate the old, so don't give one thing every day, pay attention to the matching, such as broccoli, carrots, Chinese cabbage, oranges, cabbage. Change it every day, otherwise you will be like many friends, give it every day, and then the pig will never eat it again!
Our family is also two, fat, very healthy, every day will be alive, they will jump when they are happy and with the action of shaking their heads, as long as you can see them like this, chasing and fighting, they must be healthy! Also, regarding the one you said about basking in the sun and taking it out, this is not necessary, they are not dogs. However, from time to time, put the balcony or some places with little space, and make sure that you can catch it somewhere, otherwise.
Hoho they won't come back, and they'll die outside! I did an experiment in the sun, that day there was a place on my balcony where the sun was shining, I put the food in the sun, although they were hungry, but they didn't want to approach, and then I put the food in the shade, and they opened it and grabbed it! However, it is necessary for you to take a bath every two weeks, and after washing, you should use a bath towel to dry, and you should pay attention to the bath liquid used for bathing, never use human use, or soap or the like, you must buy special ones for small animals, because they will lick and eat their own hair source stool after washing, if you use human use, it will be poisoned.
And the kind used by small animals, they will be fine when they lick it, and they are edible! Take a bath with warm water, not too cold, not too hot, use cold water, they must be very reluctant, I have done experiments on this, I used hot fire, they are quite honest, and enjoy it! After washing, there is a condition to rinse it with hot water, the amount of water is not too large, it is easy to be uncomfortable.
Also, make a big nest with grass in it, and it's best to change it every 3-4 days! Finally tell you, if they run around in the nest, don't bother them, they are happy, they are playing, what do you think you will think when you are having a good time outside when your parents scratch your ears and come home, it is just as unhappy, so let them play! By the way, if you have a colorless cardboard box hailstorm, you can make a cylindrical hole in it with a little bit, they like it, and they can sleep with this!
Hope it helps! My pigs are healthy!
Isn't there a special bathing sand... I am not afraid of it dying with water...
Tell you a sticker, Dutch pig sticker, the top must be seen.
<> Dutch pig can be bathed because it has a certain body odor and needs to be bathed regularly to make it less unpleasant, especially in summer, it is best to bathe once a day. And Dutch pigs are different from hamsters in that Dutch pigs are better bathed in warm water than in sand.
Fighting the ground has a stomachache, please take a good leave, Rongtong Hui, hi, hi, hi.
It's not a hassle to raise at all! Before buying, you need to prepare guinea pig food, Timothy grass, kettle, cage (recommended Lux T031, big enough), grass stand, food bowl, toilet, together about 200 looks. Just replenish the food and water every day. >>>More
