How long does it take guinea pigs to recover from losing a mate?

What is the weirdest thing a ginea pig does?

One of the weirdest things guinea pigs do is popcorning, where they jump and skip around in excitement.

Additionally, guinea pigs sometimes engage in "barbering," where they chew on the fur of their cage mates.
