My piggy is Nala and she is two years old. She is a rescue from the ontario SPCA that i got last July. I went to get a cat and came out with her as well because she was just too sweet to leave there. Her favorite food is green peppers and will got nuts for carrots when she get's them for at...

Is it a mucus plug maybe?

when I got my piggy from the shelter and she was on the martin mills. She had major bladder sludge and I switched her to the oxbow. She also poops better on the oxbow. So needless to say my vote is for the oxbow by far. I now how a healthier and happier pig. We are limited in Canada. To make up...

my girl does this now and then and have put it down to her being in heat.

I was sooo happy yesterday! i have had my guinea pig since july. She is a rescue from my local SPCA and was over a year old when I got her. She was in an environment where she was constantly bred and in a very small cage. Usually when I let her out to exercise in a nice large area wtih tunnels...

have you checked her bottom to see if there is some fecal matter stuck in the anus? I saw somehwere a video on how to help guinea pigs who are impacted but think this was more for males
