Stressed, over heating, barbering, some just like to eat hair, there are lots of reasons for it... The long hairs seem especially prone to chewing on each others coats which is why most people keep them separate.
Could also be caused by irritation from mites or parasites and they will scratch and pull out their fur
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.
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.
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.
Most guinea pigs have 4 toes on each front foot and 3 on each hind foot.
The side because they are the same. The top because they are different.
guinea pigs are born with fur unless the are skinny guinea pigs ( breeds with no hair)
no
guinea pigs with long hair. they needed to be brushed every day
No. Most domestic guinea pigs have short hair and freeze to death in the cold.
your guinea pigs should already know the others male.if you want to breed then keep them alone for a while.
I'm Laura and I own 14 guinea pigs and no a baby guinea pig cant have no hair baby guinea pigs get born with hair and everything (very unlike baby bunnies) so they can run and eat straight away when they are born they practically look like mini adults
guinea pigs wild or not can have any length of hair and any color depending on the breed.
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.
because of all their natural hair
Guinea pigs do not molt. Molting is when an organism with an exoskeleton 'sheds' it's outer skeleton and grows a new one, to regenerate. Guinea pigs shed their hair. They just do it; you can't stop it.
some guinea pigs love the water, others don't. Its all down to the preference of the individual
Texel guinea pigs are very high maintenance pets. They require constant cutting of hair since it grows so fast on the animal.
