| Re: why my gp eat her hair herself? It;s called barbering. Some guinea do it because they are bored. Does she have enough hay, pellets, hideyplaces and toys? Some guinea pigs do it as a nervous tendancy like biting your nails. Some piggys just do it because they can. So don't worry about it too much unless you have a petstore cage. |

| Re: why my gp eat her hair herself? How big is your cage? Most likely she does it in one spot. Are you sure shes not cleaning herself? Does she scratch alot? It could be mites, in which case you would need to find an small animals and exotic vets in your area and get ALL of your pigs treated for mites with ivermectin. Are there scabs on her? |

| Re: why my gp eat her hair herself? She may be bored, but as you said she has friends and toys, so I don't think its that. Some pigs just do it for no reason at all. I don't think you have anything to worry about |
