Behavior Guinea pig using you?

[viper2500]

It seem like when they want there daily veggie they would squeak and come close to you after you feed them they will get scary and go hide when you come into the room. Is that what every guinea pig does?

You've just described guinea pigs to a "T". Some will get used to you, and come out for pets and skritches. Some, like my Simon, will even climb into your lap if you have a treat or something interesting (in my case, Simon is obsessed with my cellphone).

But they ARE prey animals, and naturally fearful of everything.
