Guinea pigs chatter with their teeth when they're aggravated or getting mad. It's a warning signal of a sort.
My Guinea Pig does this when she is nervous, sometimes I also think she wants to get my attention. Chew things are essential to Guinea Pigs having healthy teeth.
It is not from them getting mad or "warning" you unless you do something to HARM them. They will only use this as a warning when another guinea pig is being aggressive to them.
If the guinea pig is doing it "TO" you it is because he/she is nervous or scared when you are holding her or trying to pick them up. Just use calm words, and a treat of parsley or another veggie to reward them and put them at ease.
Some guinea pigs do it as a warning to another guinea pig but others sometimes just do it as a dislike to a sound or action.
Sometimes they are talking or even trying to attract another female
He is simply hungry i get it all the time from my little baby
you will often see them rubbing their teeth backwards and forwards. They are just grinding their teeth so they don't grow too long. that's why they might chew on wood and plastic sometimes. it completely normal.
Yes Guinea Pigs Loose Teeth Just Like Us So If It Bites Into Somthing Hard it May End Up Loosing A Tooth For Food,Guinea Pigs Only Get 4 more teeth if they lose the 4. answered by:A Friend To Animals
guinea pigs can break and lose teeth, as they are rodents, their teeth constantly grow, so should grow back on their own with time, one of mine has lost his incisors many many times and they have always grown back.
sometimes though, this is not the case if the root is badly damaged and you will need to take him to the vet for advice and to get his opposite teeth trimmed or removed as they will not wear down
If that's happening, you need to take your pig to the vet RIGHT AWAY. it needs help NOW. If you wait too long, they could starve and die. you NEED to get to the vet ASAP.
No, guinea pigs shouldn't lose their teeth. Their teeth continuously grow which is why they have to grind them down.
Your pet was grooming itself. The hair was left over from licking and cleaning. It will disappear after it eats it's next meal or takes a drink of water.
no they shouldn't lose there teeth they have one set of teeth and that's it. they grow for ever that's why you should have a chew toy in the hutch or a peice of wood so that they can keep their teeth to a healthy length. my guinea pig lost her top teeth so i had to mash her food and hand feed her it took a couple of days for her teeth to grow back but make sure to check that there is a bit of their teeth there where the gum is because if it is just gum you may need to take him for an xray to see if the teeth are going to grow again. hope this helps
Your little pig may not be o.k. I'm not professorially sure but i think guinea pigs don't lose their teeth so you should talk to your local or personal vet.
Somewhere around five months they lose their baby teeth.
Puppies lose all of their baby or milk teeth. As the adult teeth grow in the milk teeth should fall out. Sometimes both will be visible.
Kittens lose their deciduous teeth (baby/kitten teeth) at around 5 to 6 months of age, and the adult canine teeth grow in. Adult cats may lose these teeth due to injury or disease, and new teeth do not grow back.
proberbly ate too much hard food Get it to the vet
They don't. If so happens, get them to the vet.

Once if you look after them, twice if you don't.
Unlike humans, guinea pigs don't lose their teeth, ( nor do they brush them) this allows to maintain healthy and strong teeth. eating hard foods and constant chewing help wear down the teeth to keep them at a proper and comfortable length. when a guinea pig breaks a tooth it is able to grow back allowing it to eat.
You will lose none because that is your last set of teeth and you better not lose them.
You are supposed to lose up to 20 teeth
you lose your teeth because new teeth are growing in and the new teeth push the current teeth and you have brand new healthy shiny teeth!
You shoulden't worry. Different children lose teeth at different times. If your worried about it you should talk to your Dentist about it. Hope this helps!! XX You shoulden't worry.

Tortoises never have any teeth to lose. They are born with horny beaks instead of teeth.
Yes, they sometimes lose their teeth as well. Though at times they may never grow back. Good luck!
