Today
Mrs.Lumb and her daughter brought in their guinea pigs, Barnabas and Bartholomew to visit our classroom. They are Texel guinea pigs which have a long coat that flows back over their body.Their coat is so distinctive because of its curls. The Texel guinea pig originated in England in the 1980s when a Silkie guinea pig was crossed with a Rex guinea pig.
Mrs.Lumb
showed us how to groom and trim the coat of this breed of guinea pig.
We enjoyed stroking their
soft coat and feeding them some grass and small pieces of fruit and vegetables.
This week we are going to explore the topic of pets.
