Andrea Holmes

Andrea Holmes, American guinea pigs, Leeds, Maine in Androscoggin County near Lewiston, raises a small herd with dedicated care rooted in family farming traditions. She has been breeding American guinea pigs for several years and follows breeding standards outlined by national cavy associations, including routine wellness exams and genetic health screenings for known conditions in the breed.

The pigs live in clean, ventilated hutches on soft bedding, enjoy supervised outdoor time, and receive socialization through daily handling by members of the household. Andrea’s approach emphasizes balanced nutrition with fresh greens and high-quality pellets to support growth and coat condition.

Visitors often note the pigs’ calm demeanor and playful interactions, reflecting early social exposure and consistent attention. The farm has a gentle rhythm that respects each animal’s needs, and occasional community events introduce newcomers to the breed in a relaxed environment.
