This morning I noticed a small scratch on my guinea pigs private parts which I think its just him catching with his nail accidentally.
However I also noticed for the first time that something is sticking out of his bum. Its longish piece of his skin and can’t be removed as its not loose . Its not been there before.
Today whenever I pick him up it’s sticking out like this but couple of times it was back inside?
What could it be ? Should I take him to vets tomorrow morning?

Has he been neutered recently? Is it possible that it is a piece of suture material?
I agree that whatever it is that is hanging out, it does need to be seen by a vet as that is not normal.
 
hes not been neutered and looking up close it is skin/flesh but still not a clue as what it is and why it appeared overnight so will definitely take him to vets tomorrow.

Good luck and don't forget to let us know how you get on.
