if its beding is hay then yes it normal for any g-pig to eat hay
But you should NOT use hay for bedding. Hay is to eat, you should use either aspen (NOT pine) or recycled paper bedding that you buy at the pet store.
Improved:
Actually, it is normal for guinea pigs to eat their bedding. I know that it is gross, but guinea pigs are supposed to eat their droppings because it gives them necessary nutrients that they don't have time to absorb the first time it goes through their bodies. Recycled paper bedding at the pet store is the best, and the best kind of hay is the KAYTEE brand Timothy hay. Hope that this helps!

Young Guinea Pigs may sneeze if they are sensitive to dust or allergens in the bedding, especially if it's not cleaned and changed often. Eating bedding may indicate a nutritional deficiency or boredom; ensure the Guinea Pig has enough hay and fruits/vegetables in their diet, and consider providing more enrichment activities to prevent nibbling on bedding.
