Skin Problems Brown Spots on Ear

[Emilia Yoon]

I am someone who is new at taking care of guinea pigs. I have two males and as I was doing research on what a "healthy" guinea pig should look like, I noticed a brown/pink spot on my guinea pig's ear. Is this normal or should I go to a vet soon? Thanks

That looks like the coloring of his ear to me.

Looks like a normal ear to me.

But since you're new to pigs, here's a crash course in behavior and general and medical care: https://www.guineapigcages.com/forum/threads/113176-Information-for-new-guinea-pig-owners

So it's ok if the coloring is on his ear as well?

Yes. It's fine.

Google "guinea pigs" and click on Images. You'll see thousands of guinea pigs of every possible color pattern
