Ive had my new guinea pig since October and I've notice he'll start biting me a couple times when I hold him ( he's also a baby also he is my third guinea pig I've had) Can someone explain why he's doing this?
 
Hi I’m new here but I’ve noticed a member called Weibke on here has excellent information and advice about understanding guinea pig behaviour. Apparently you should be happy. This is a sign your guinea pig has relaxed enough in your company, and, in the few weeks you’ve had him, your guinea pig has learned to trust you to the extent that he feels able to show you when he’s annoyed or has had enough cuddles for now, thanks you :) Initially they are more likely to remain very still, as they are prey animals and sometimes ‘playing dead’ is the best defence they have. Hope this helps and check out Weibke’s info .
