QuestionMy friend got two guinea pigs and she was told that they were both females. But then the next few days they had two babies. She asked if I wanted to have one and... well I have a three year old female guinea pig. Would I be able to get them used to eachother? Is there anyhthing I can do?
Also is it normal for guinea pigs to have a little bit of crust around their eyes sometimes?
thank you
AnswerTwo females are your best bet. Be patient, take it slowly, and I suggest either dividing the cage you have in half, or buying another and placing it next to the old one. I suggest you try and give both a bath in the same smelling soap, and clean out the cage with hot water and vinegar. A little bit of crust around the eyes is normal unless your pig's eye is oozing out tears or if the eye looks infected or like something is in it.
