Do guinea pigs shed in the spring time?

Answer 1

If you are talking about an outdoor storage building then ABSOLUELY NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Guinea pigs need to be in cages indoors. If you can absolutely not keep your pig indoors, get a pen but keep it in the shade. If you have room in your house, try your best to keep the piggie indoors.

Answer 2

Yes they can be, it would be more suited if there were 2 as they can snuggle up to keep each other warm.

But otherwise the need a tiny bit of light, and to be covered up of a night.

if you ment let them run free in the shed, then probably not.....

Answer 6

No, nursing mothers shed their underbelly hair but that's about the only major shedding they do. Other than that they loose a few strands here and there.
