Re: Young thing ;)
Yeh i think 7 weeks personally... but when we went to see them (so ickly cuttee!) they were 2 weeks and we saw them 2 weeks ago :L
Hmm...

Re: Young thing ;)
4 weeks is too young, it should be 5 weeks as an absolute minimum. Animals need to be a certain age past weaning (I can't remember off the top of my head) but it's longer than a week. Doesn't sound like a very responsible breeder

Re: Young thing ;)
They really do benefit from staying with their siblings/parents a little longer.
Is there any reason you're not getting a pair?

Re: Young thing ;)
Well... the last thing we really need right now, is needing to separate them :P If anything happens between Pip and Pop then i'd be able to separate easily but not any more :P
But, they can live happily alone, right? i mean we would give them loadsa attention and all
