Read this if you wanna learn about guinea pigs!!

here is a long post on guinea pig breeds. it is intended to educate any guinea lovers or guinea interested people. these are all the breeds i know of but if there are more let me know and i will include them! I will be separating the images by breed but if there is a satin variant i will include that with the original breed (such as: american and american satin). guinea pig breeds are differentiated mostly by their coat type and color, but i am focusing on coat type here to hopefully cut down on the size of this post a bit plus it is the more important feature usually

Also satin syndrome makes the guinea pigs shiny. it does come with potential health issues but here i am just focusing on the outside appearance of the pigs!

[ID: Image 1: Shiny, brown, short haired guinea pig. The background is brownish and blurry.

Image 2: profile view short haired orange and white guinea pig. the background is white.

end ID]

this is an american guinea pig! it is fully short haired with all its hair going back towards its hind end. they can come in many patterns and colors! The left is an american satin guinea pig. the short haired guinea pigs show the shinyness very well.

[ID: image 1: Fuzzy, shiny, orange guinea pig with fur in rosettes/cowlicks. Background is blue.

image 2: Guinea pig with the same fur texture but not shiny. it is brown, light brown, and cream. Background is beige.

end ID]

This is an abyssinian satin guinea pig and an abyssinian guinea pig. their most distinctive feature is their rosettes/cowlicks! they basically always look like they were just towel dried after a bath.

[ID: image 1: long haired, shiny, blonde guinea pig with its hair in front of its face. it is on a teal blanket and in front of a white wall.

image 2: long haired brown guinea pig with the same fur texture but not shiny. the background is white.

end ID]

This is a peruvian satin and a peruvian guinea pig! they have long hair that parts down the middle and have bangs on top of their head that grow forward and out unless they are cut. they can be given endless fun haircuts! some are even triangle shaped

[ID: image 1: shiny, Orange and white, long haired guinea pig with no parting in its hair. it is on a blue blanket.

image 2: not shiny blonde guinea pig with shorter hair but the same texture. it is on a wooden table with grass in the background.

end ID]

These are silkie satin and silkie guinea pigs. They have long, smooth, flat hair and unlike peruvians they have no part down the middle. these pigs are also known as shelties. sometimes they look like wigs!

[ID: White, black, brown, and orange guinea pig with long fur and no part down the middle. It has short fur on top of its head that sticks out slightly. the background is white.

end ID]

Coronet pigs are similar to silkie pigs but they have a rosette on top of their head! this makes it look like they have a flat head or they just got a bad haircut but it's fully natural for the breed! basically the mullets of guinea pigs

[ID: Brown and white guinea pig with the fur on the top of its head creating a circle shaped indent. it is being pet on the chin and standing on black fabric.

end ID]

This is an english crested guinea pig! They're known for the indent on their head, known as a crest. They can come in many colors and are great starter breeds because of their short fur. also you can put a grape or blueberry on the crest!

[ID: Gold guinea pig with white fur on top of its head. it is standing on a blue blanket

end ID]

This is a white crested guinea pig, also known as an american crested! they have the same indent as the english crested pigs but different coloring. these pigs are solid colored except for the crest which is white

[ID: image 1: fuzzy brown and white guinea pig with very short and slightly shiny hair that sticks straight up. it is standing on blue fabric.

image 2: fuzzy brown and white guinea pig with very short hair sticking straight up. it is standing on a small salmon colored mat.

end ID]

These are teddy satin and teddy guinea pigs. They're known for their short, soft hair that sticks straight up. They both look and feel like teddy bears and are essentially stuffed animals in guinea pig format.

[ID: Brown, fuzzy guinea pig with short hair that sticks up and slightly back. The background is white.

end ID]

This is a rex guinea pig! they are very similar to teddy guinea pigs but their hair is coarser and it tends to go backwards a bit instead of sticking up. however it can be hard to tell the two breeds apart without feeling their hair because they are very similar!

[ID: Brown and white long haired guinea pig with lettice in front of its face. it's hair is wavy.

This is a texel guinea pig and yes its hair naturally grows like that! they have long, smooth, wavy hair that grows down and slightly backwards. Just like silkies they are essentially the wigs of the guinea pig world!

[ID: Adult blonde and white guinea pig with coarse, long, wavy hair. under its chin is a baby guinea pig the same colors and short wavy hair. the background is white

end ID]

These are alpaca guinea pigs! they are similar to texel pigs because they are both curly breeds, but they are a bit different. alpaca pigs typically have denser fur and their babies are known for being ultra cute!

[ID: Brown and orange guinea pig with medium length hair that sticks up all over the place. the background is light blue.

end ID]

This is a sheba/sheba mini yak guinea pig! it is a mix between a peruvian and abyssinian guinea pig and is known for it's medium length, bedhead-like hair. its hair doesnt grow as fast as a Peruvians and it breaks off more easily so its wonderful for owners who want a longer haired pig without as much work.

[ID: White guinea pig with very long, luscious, and slightly wavy fur. the fur on its face is short. the background is white.

end ID]

This is my favorite breed, the lunkarya/lunk guinea pig! it is a mutation of peruvian guinea pig, but there can be lunkarya silkie and lunkarya coronet pigs too. they're known for their long, slightly wavy hair that can't be smoothed out, unlike their straight haired counterparts.

[ID: Fully bald guinea pig with mostly pale pink skin and some dark brown skin. the background is white.

end ID]

This is a baldwin guinea pig! it is the only fully hairless guinea pig breed so its pretty easy to spot. they are born with full coats of hair and lose them within a few weeks (but oftentimes less time). they were a result of a recessive genetic mutation that causes complete hair loss.

[ID: Mostly hairless guinea pig with short, fuzzy orange hair on its nose, ears, and feet. its skin is black and it has peach fuzz throughout its body. it is standing on blue and white plaid fabric and the background is white.

end ID]

this is a skinny pig! unlike the baldwin pig, these pigs have a bit of hair. they have the most amount of hair around their face and legs, but there is a bit of peach-fuzz-like hair throughout their entire body. they are born with their mostly-hairless coats!

[ID: Partially hairless white guinea pig with a brown nose. it has sparse, fuzzy hairs throighout its body. it has slightly more hair near the front of its body and its face. the background is fuzzy red fabric.

end ID]

This is a werewolf guinea pig, which is a distinct variation of skinny pigs! While skinny pigs are mostly bald with peach fuzz hairs, werewolf pigs have quite a bit more hair but still not full coats. theyre basically half hairless piggies!

[ID: White and slightly brown guinea pig with long, dense, slightly wavy hair and shorter fuzzy hair on its face. it is standing on a brick wall with a garden in the background.

end ID]

This is a minipli guinea pig! it is a mix of lunkarya and alpaca piga that only started being bred fairly recently. it has the thick hair of the lunk and the coarser hair of the alpaca. however since its hair is more brittle it won't reach lunk lengths.

[ID: Orange and slightly white guinea pig that is fully shorthaired except for a mohawk-like ridge running down its back. it is standing in the grass and the background is a metal fence.

end ID]

This is a ridgeback guinea pig! It is a variant of the abyssinian guinea pig known for its mohawk. this fashionable piggie has this mohawk because of the two rosettes on each side of its back that cause the hair to stick straight up.

[ID: Brown, orange and slightly white guinea pig with medium length, smooth, wavy hair and short fuzzy hair on its face. the background is white.

end ID]

This is a merino guinea pig and also our last pig of the list (unless i need to update it)! The merino is a mix of the texel and coronet breeds and it has distinct features of both. this pig has the wavy, smooth coat of the texel and the same forehead rosette as the coronet!

i hope you all enjoyed these pigs!! let me know if there's any i missed. wheek wheek!!

Anyone keeping rodents or rabbits or parrots in the market for some mulberry chews?

We had to take down two mulberry trees in the bird pens today in order to allow for redoing the overhead netting and repair of a support post, so I have a TON of fresh, organic, pesticide-and-fertilizer-free mulberry wood I can dry and bake for chews right now. The wood is sweet-smelling and on the softer side, and it tends to shred instead of chipping like apple wood. My mice and rats loved shredding out pieces and putting it into their nests. Wood will be cut, air-dried in the house, and baked.

Safe wood for at least rats, mice, rabbits, chinchillas, and guinea pigs to chew and safe for parrots EXCEPT possibly neophema species (diuretic effects were noted in just this species when consuming leaves, but play it safe).

#rat #rodent #mouse #rabbit #guinea pig #mice #longfeather lane #I'd rather spend the time to make use of it #but if no one's interested I won't wear my hands out doing it #I have plenty of brush pile space and a big firepit #figured I would offer though #Probably price it by weight post-bake
