there is a few things that it could be but i would say that it is probably a gland that all guinea pigs have on their rump. It generally tends to show up more in white or very pale coloured Guinea's is nothing to worry about unless you notice any seeping or oozing coming from the gland in which case it will need to be treated by a vet. I have found with my guineas that a bath every 2-3 months and cutting the hair around the gland tends to make it look nicer. x

Why is a guinea pig better than a hamster?

Hamsters ar smaller harder to handle thay have a tiny tail sticking out of their bum they have sharper and smaller teeth and there are not as many types of them as guinea pigs Guinea pigs tails dont stick out they do have one but it is hidden when they bight it doesnt hurt. And they are allot more friendlier


My one male guinea pig keeps biting the other male guinea pig and he always has cuts on his bum Should i keep them separated or would that stress them out?

Yes, you should keep all male guinea pigs separate. They are very territorial and they will always fight. It will not stress them if they can hear or see each other through the cages.


Why would your 3 month old guinea pig was bleeding from his bum and suddenly died before you had a chance to take him to the vet?

guinea pigs used to be wild animals; they would hide their illness to prevent looking sick and weak so they don't get eaten. your piggie probably was already sick and had a birth defect maybe and didnt show it. R.I.P. guinea pig

What does a horses bum look like?

I think this should answer your question.A guinea pig's bum does not look any different from its body. It is the same largeness as it's full torso. You will see a little "crack" at the bottom of it's bum but it's naturally the fur, not in the guinea pig's skin. If you were to lift him/her up you would only see a small hole where feces would come out. Too much information?
