Question
I was just wondering if two different types of guinea pigs can breed?

Answer
Emily,

Of course two different breeds of Guinea Pigs can breed. A Guinea Pig is a Guinea Pig, only difference is that some have long hair, some of short hair, some have rosettes (cowlicks), some have two colors, some have one, or some have 3. That is the only different in types of Guinea Pigs. When two different types of Guinea Pigs are breed together then they are a mixed breed.

I hope this helps,
    Take care now,
