If you would like to keep more than the number of Guinea pigs allowed for your property size, you will need to apply for an animal keeping approval, see Animal keeping approval application (other than cats and dogs) (PDF 427 KB).
If you would like to keep more than what an animal keeping approval allows, you will need a development approval. For more information please contact council@logan.qld.gov.au.
