its okay if guinea pigs eat their own poop because they don't get enough mineral so they eat their own poop to get it so its okay
Yeah what she said all though its like Poop it isn't well squishy they eat so they can digest their food properly too.
This type of poop contains vitamins, minerals and some proteins that were not absorbed when ingested first time. So in order to get these vitamins, minerals and proteins into their system, guinea pigs reingest this type of poop.
