What do you do when a guinea pig gets constipated (besides bringing them to the vet?) and how do you know when theyre constapated?? I did a search and I didn't find any matches. Any info would be helpful!

Feeding too much bananas can lead to constipation.

My vet had me give them some grapes when one of mine was constipated...I didnt know she was, I just knew she was asleep and would make these little chirp sounds and it scared me so much I called and woke my vet up and make him check right then...the grapes worked great and I try to give them a few grapes a week now...though I would take them to a vet as it could be serious or life threatening
