Hi Kathy S
 
It was so nice to hear from you and thanks for the welcome back to the GPDD.  Speedy was definitely a character.  As I recall the incident he attempted to remove my thumb. I had five guinea pigs in a small plastic tub and was carrying them outside so they could spend the day in their day-pen.  I had placed the piggers "head to butt" in alternate positions so no one was face to face.  But somehow Speedy decided he didn't like this arrangement of his head by another's butt so he took a nip out of his neighbor and then the whole dishpan full of piggers erupted into a "John Wayne bar brawl"  In my efforts to break up the fight, Speedy found my thumb and attempted to remove it!!  I lifted my hand up and Speedy stayed clamped to the end of my thumb with blood running down onto him.  
 
Needless to say, after that episode I made other arrangements for transporting the piggers.
