Nails

Can guinea pigs get nail fungus? I googled it and like I haven't really seen it listed as people having said their guinea pig HAS nail fungus so much as they ask if it is possible. I didn't see anything on guinea lynx either.

Sometimes you'll see a guinea pig with a very thick nail, and I believe that's a type of fungus.

I've just noticed that my rex girl's middle toe on her left back foot has massively thickend at the root of the toe. It's swelled to 3 times it's size. I can't find anything on the net which suggests what the cause might be. I was concidering a fungal infection but honestly I have no idea. The swelling is all in the nail and nothing looks painful or sore.

Id get her to the vet ASAP.
