Hi guys.
so I just noticed my female Guinea has black stuff inside her nose which I cleaned and It came out easily. she doesn’t have a runny nose but this black stuff comes up again and again and I am not sure what’s it.
I have attached a photo of the nose which can help to understand it better. what can it br? Poop or dust or anything?

Hey thanks for replying 😁😁 . What’s scatter feed, sorry I didn’t understand
 
To be honest, its rather difficult for us to have any idea what it is from a picture. A vet check would be the best thing if you are concerned.

Scatter feeding is when you simply throw veg and pellets loose into the cage floor for them to forage for and dont use bowls.
 
Yaa you’re probably right 😁😁
I’ll try your method ans see if anything changes
Thanks a lot 😀
