Yes i think it does. The more hair, the more to shed.
This is totally untrue! just because it has rosettes , they have no more hair it just grows as rosettes, I have 3 types of guinea 1 has rosettes and they all shed about the same.
short hair.
That depends on the parents. They can be a cross between the long and short hair. They can just be the short hair. They can be the long hair. It will just be a surprise there is no way to predict it.
see how long their hair grows!

First of all, guinea pigs don't have fur, they have hair. That is why they are used for testing cosmetics and hair products. As a guinea pigs ages, it's hair probably gets just a little lighter or darker. But that is only true with colored guinea pigs, not albinos.
They don't really shed. Onlt reallylong haired guinea pigs shed.
short hair.
That depends on the parents. They can be a cross between the long and short hair. They can just be the short hair. They can be the long hair. It will just be a surprise there is no way to predict it.
Does the hair go in different ways to make a circle (a bit like a rosette)? If it is then it's probably an abyssinian.
No. Most domestic guinea pigs have short hair and freeze to death in the cold.
It all depends on if you like brushing your guinea pig a lot. You see, long hair guinea pigs are harder to groom and their hair gets full of dust and bedding and gets kind of nasty. But, short hair guinea pigs have more trouble keeping themselves warm. So it depends on if you are a brusher or a cuddler. If you are both, then I suggest getting a long hair and a short hair to share a cage together.
ones with short hair
For long hair, wash them, dry them on the cool setting, and brush them. Short hair, brush them.
Guinea pigs are cavies, short stocky animals, with short legs, adults weighing about 1,000 to 1,500 grams. They have a wide range of colours and no external tail. Their hair is mostly short and coarse.
Yes, they are all furry. Some breeds have very long hair. There are some that are short hair.

50 % out of hundred. Some babies may come out long haired and some short.
