So my 6-month old teddy guinea pig does this thing where, after she’s eaten, she like burps / coughs and then seems to be chewing & then swallows it again? It’s like a smelly burp and I don’t know if this is normal as she eats quite fast but my other guinea pig (same gender and age) doesn’t do this? Any advice please?

Hi

Your girl is highly likely one of the greedy eaters that swallows some air with the food. It is nothing to worry about.
