I am fostering this very young boar, and he started off by wheeking while in with his new cage mate. I thought maybe he was hungry, so I took him aside and started to try to feed him. He ignored it and started up this very high pitched wheeking. It almost sounds like he's scared or calling for his mom. Is there anything I can do or will this just phase out as he gets older? At times the wheeking is accompanied by stressed sounding breaths, like sighs.
I'm also not sure if every baby guinea pig has a strained nasally wheek to them, but I have three babies that have this sound. The only difference is with this boy, when he is just breathing his nose has a popping sound to it. Do they all have a URI or is it normal?
