I think all these piggies are beautiful and couldn't make up my mind which I love because I love them all. Amazing how they don't move just freeze in the position they're in.

Selfs are a very special breed, they are trained to stand like that, it’s takes a lot of effort but then they are relaxed and are not scared of load noises or things moving around them

Would it be easy to go to a pet store and buy one of these special piggies or go through a breeder?

How much would a Show standard Self cost?
@guineapigswithgreg457510 ай бұрын
In the Uk auctions I have seen the best ones go for £500 a pair, but usually you can get a showable cavy for £30

please tell me why exactly golden pigs differ so much in their appearance? How and why did this happen to them? Who worked on it the most?
@guineapigswithgreg4575 Жыл бұрын
Thank that might be a video all on its own, popular breeds tend to have bigger gene pools and more competition to push the breed/ colour forward

I find it really weird that each color is considered a breed. That's like saying a black lab and a yellow lab are each their own breed. They're just different colors of the same breed.... I personally don't like breeding like to like (gold to gold, cream to cream, etc) for my projects. I can see why people would for shows, but I prefer rainbow litters.

Hi Anna, you are completely correct the breed is a self and each colour is a variation, I should have used the word colour rather than breed in the intro, you can be a breeder of a specific colour. The way you produce creams consistently is by using a buff to a white so that might be a breed for you, would love to see some pictures of your cavies, the rainbow ones always look gorgeous
