poop

Hello everyone, This is my first time posting on this forum so please correct me if I make any mistakes! We have a 5 year old boar named Pebble (PB as a nickname). He now lives alone after we lost our other piggy two years ago. He has always been fit and well, other than once having a UTI...

So in the neverending saga of Weasley, he was looking better apart from the gas on Monday afternoon, so the vet started him on fibreplex to try and flush him out, upped his emeprid to 3 times a day and suggested putting him back in to a larger cage to see if he got more exercise. Last night his...

So the latest development in Weasley is a strange one. He seems to have balanced out in terms of poop consistencey, they are mostly a decent size (still a few small ones), a nice deep brown/black and mostly round with only a few with slightly pointy ends. The issue is timing. He doesn't drop...

Hello again all, Weasley's bloat fired up again less than a day after being cleared of his bloat and UTI and marked as healthy by the vet (I wasn't very impressed). He's been back off his veg and on Emeprid and Metacam since Tuesday morning. I am a bit concerned about his poops doign somethign...

Hello all! Given how helpful you all were on my last post I was hoping for some new advice. I lost one piggy to gut stasis a fortnight ago, and my other managed to pull through. Weasley has been doing really well for the last week since he came off his meds but we had been staying with...

My guinea pig, salty is currently ill, and we strongly believe it is associated with pooing as his ass is starting to be very brown (covered in poo) as we constantly clean it (once every two days) as he also squeaks whilst pooing (squeaks at least 5 times) and then lets out a strange squeak. I...

Hello. My little boar Poe is having some issues with pooping. He's 9 months, and he's had some health problems due to where he came from before I adopted him. I noticed yesterday morning that he had not pooped over night. Which is not normal for the little poop machine. He did start pooping...

I haven't had the boys very long, and I'm worried about their poo, to be honest. Most are normal, but they all seem softer than they should be, some have ridges/dents in the middle and some have a pointed end. Their behaviour is perfectly fine, eating, drinking (they drink less because their...

Ok, my fellow cavy enthusiasts! I'm really getting tired of how ugly my guinea pigs' cage is, especially when I'm trying to decorate my new apartment. Nothing says aesthetically appealing like an ugly wire cage with hay and piggie poop flying everywhere. After scouring the internet for some kind...

I know black to dark brown oval shaped poo is normal and I'm seeing about 90% of that. The other percent however I need help with. The problem is that I have four males and am not sure which poo is coming from which pig for the most part so I need suggestions on how to figure this out. None...

Hi! Sorry if these questions sound daft, my only excuse is that I'm new to this and still finding my feet! :-) First question, I started using fleece bedding yesterday and I love it! All but the hay which just seems to stick to it and is impossible to hoover/sweep up. I was wondering if...

Hi my guinea pig Castiel has been on Baytril (0.15ml twice daily) and Loxicom (0.25ml daily) since monday for a uti, he hasn't been eating much, only nibbling hay and very little interest in any veggies. Before the medicine he was in a lot of pain when you touched his stomach, peeing blood and...
