What illnesses do guinea pigs normally get?
Guinea pigs can suffer from a number of different illnesses. If your guinea pig is sneezing and has a runny nose they could have a cold or they can be allergic to the bedding you are using. Guinea pigs can suffer from diabetes and it is important to keep them at a healthy weight and not feed them too much sugar. They can also develop cysts or abscesses. Scurvy can be caused if there is not enough vitamin C in their diet. The most common ailment I have seen is dehydration. Alot of times a guinea pig that has been on antibiotics will be lacking the bacteria in their stomach that is needed to digest their food. This will lead to soft stool. The guinea pig will quickly become dehydrated and should be taken to a vet that is a small animal expert immediately. Bene Bac is a tube of the bacteria that needs to be replaced in their belly. The first sign your guinea pig is not well is mucus in the eyes. Also look for eating and pooping habits.

What causes bowel movement to be tiny ball size?
The question is: Do they float? As long as they float it means you are getting plenty of fiber and that's a good thing! The little 'ball' size isn't anything to worry about as long as you are regular. If you're that concerned, you could take a stool softener nightly so the 'tiny ball' situation may change. What is wrong is that your colon is holding on to too much water and this is drying out the stool. Try more water and the stool softener.

The height of the stool should be no more than six inches. The stool should have a wide, solid base rather than legs. Choose a stool that's weighty (wood) rather than lightweight (plastic). Work with the child on how to use the stool. Very young kids forget they are standing on a stool and then step off and fall.
