Adopted a New Guinea pig today. The people I got them from claim it to be a female but to me it doesn’t appear so. Can anyone help determine the gender? 141F1148-5293-4A11-A4D4-A3CF369355E7.jpg7E98F385-BA1C-4158-8451-BCA7999777FE.jpg

The second picture is too fuzzy to tell anything about it. The first one looks male, but it would really be good if you could post clear, well-lit, close up pictures so we could see better.

Also, take a look at https://cavyspirit.com/sexing.htm for some comparison.

Definitely a boy. I also have a smaller boar who I had a hard time determining the sex of because he's, well, extra small :D

It's a boy. But when you do take the small one for a vet check-up, you can ask there too just to be sure.
