Maybe it doesn't like the food or might not be hungry.

If you change the food and it still won't eat, maybe take it to the vets to see if he is ok. Hope it helps.

Btw, my guinea pig won't eat either. I'm going to change the food soon and see if that helps.

A guinea pig may be unwell if he or she doesn't eat. The guinea pig may be stressed,

have a vitamin deficiency, or some other problem or illness, so the guinea pig should be taken to a vet.

Because you have to do something exciting with the food. Like try to hide the food in a toilet paper roll. I really like to see the little guinea piggies try to find the food!
