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?

Guinea pigs typically have a longer lifespan (around 5-7 years), are more social animals that enjoy interaction with humans, and are generally larger in size, making them easier to handle than hamsters. Additionally, guinea pigs have distinct personalities and can learn to recognize their owners.

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?

It's important to keep the guinea pigs separated to prevent further injury and stress. It's possible that they are not getting along, and continuous aggression can lead to serious harm. Ensure each guinea pig has its own space, shelter, food, and water to reduce stress while trying to reintroduce them gradually if possible.


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?


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

1. pet it in the cage to calm it down 2. slide one hand under its belly 3. lift the guinea about 5cm in the air 4.put your other hand under its bum 5.lift it up and place it down gently ***If it tries to run away when you pick it up, you need to work on trust between your guinea pig & you.

Is a pigs bum pork or is it backgammon?

A pig's bum, or its rear end, is considered part of the animal and would typically be processed as pork. Backgammon, on the other hand, is a board game and has no relation to meat or animals. Therefore, a pig's bum is pork, not backgammon.
