QUESTION: I Spoke To You About My Guinea Pig Before About My Guinea But This Time Its Different.
My guinea pig is in with a male and another female ! they are mating. I Woke up in the morning and looked in their cage and she is longed and all of it has gone ! Well not all of it but its like a short hair guinea pig now ! it almost looks like someone has cut it ! i looked in the cage for any possible hair but there is none !
do you have an explanation for this ?
thanks.

ANSWER: Hi Raith

This is strange,

Are you sure that somebody did not come and cut there hair does it look like it has been cut or pulled out? because sometimes guinea pigs can either pull there own fur out and eat it or another guinea pig has pulled it out and ate it


Please answer the question i have asked and  will get back to you when you reply

Good Luck

QUESTION: Yea Im sure noone has cut it !
She has been in with a male for 3 weeks !
i wonder if he done it.
but it doesnt look pulled out ! it does look like someone has cut it !but noone has

ANSWER: Hi Raith

This is so strange,
I have never heard of this happening before.
I have  2 reasons why i think how it has happened.
Reason 1. It may have been the male they might have had a fight or he may of over groomed her.

Reason 2. She could be suffering from a skin disease or has simply just lost her hair due to malting and then after she has just eaten the hair.

Does she have any skin problems?
Does she scratch herself often?

Good Luck I just cant Understand this
