It's best to ask a veterinarian about the use of iodine on a guinea pig. However,
cornstarch or styptic powder can be applied to a guinea pig's injured nail.
do not worry. if your guinea pigs nail falls off, its no big deal. but, if its way too short, then call a vet
a nail clipper
no that isn't true. however you shouldn't let them get too long. Bleeding from the nail will occur if when you cut the nail you cut it too short, in most guinea pigs the nail colour changes, it starts off a pinky red colour and then goes to a white/clear colour. Never cut past/onto the pinky red colour. Laura (owner of 3 guinea pigs).
No! Have you seen what they do to guinea pigs? They keep them in such small GLASS CAGES! that proves PETCO cannot do anything good for your guinea pig. Not to be harsh, but you need to buy nail clippers from petco and cut them yourself. And NEVER, EVER let PETCO cut your guinea pigs nails.
You hold it tight and clip them carefully. If you cut the nail too far in it will hurt her. Clip the end of the nail.
NOOO, if your guinea Pigs toenails are bleeding when you cut them DON'T cut it as short as you are at the moment. You should not clip the pinkish part of the nail. OR you can take a nail filer for human nails and just scratch off a bit of nail with it.
No!!!!!!!They are actually part of the rodent family.
No.
I have three
Not sure, but guinea pigs aren't type of pigs. They're in the rodents family, and NOT pigs. Hope this helped?
Peruvians cook guinea pigs. Guinea pigs are native there and they are called Cuy.
No. Gerbils produce gerbils and guinea pigs produce guinea pigs
