we are maude and bessie
Hi.
Well, you knew this was coming: a pigblog. Think of it as an outlet for all my pigtures and pig stories which allows me to not bring them up in conversation all the time.
So this week, Bessie came out of her two-week quarantine to meet Maude. We introduced them in the "neutral environment" of the hallway. Teeth chattering, squealing, nipping and chasing ensued, and on the whole they behaved like nasty little kids, or maybe dogs. From what I've read that's normal, but not pleasant. Now they're both in Maude's cage with a barrier between them, which should prevent any serious injuries while they get used to each other.
The funniest thing was when Alex and I noticed Maude doing what's called a "rumble strut" in front of Bessie -- that's usually how male guinea pigs try to pick up the ladies. They make a motorcycle noise and do a slow march in front of the other pig. We were like, oh snap, is Maude a dude? But after looking it up, we found out that it's just an act of dominance that any pig will do. So Maude wants to be "head pig" -- I guess we'll see about that.

Just wanted to add that Twister does the rumble strut, but then Chase jumps up on his back, as if if to say shut up dude or maybe he is saying something else...
anon #1: hello, CHRIS!
anon #2 (aka, Kate): that's cute! I think it's probably best if one pig is all about dominance and the other pig doesn't take it too seriously. Otherwise, you'd have a whole master-slave thing going on, and that's no fun!
The only things more funnier then an pigblog is anon #1

Respect.
jamalblack@gmail.com to make da transaction.
What a great idea!Is there any jealousy over hair styles and colors?If so,Alex could give Maud a Mohawk shave for hot summer.Bessie an organic color rinse and velcro rollers for curls.Then there's Xmas-baby sizes in stores? for Xmas outfits?With their permission of course so as not to mocked by jealous cats and dogs.The ideas for poems and adventure stories for these two are endless.M & B in the bayou. A Victorian Xmas for M & B.A crest or logo is a must.A club. I'd like to join.Auntie Sheila(who shares their love for eating).
Sorry Jamal, they is not for sale. Check it, yo, these be my guineas, what I keep as pets, ait? Like I don't want nobody eatin' dem, ya dig? So no deal, man. Peace, bra.
Hey Guys!
Mike just told me about pigblog and so I'm checking it out for myself now. I really didn't believe him that it existed (I didn't think that there was anyone possibly cool enough to start something like this). I must admit that its pretty hilarious. Kudos. Pigblog has been bookmarked, so I expect frequent updates.
-Chris.
