can guinea pigs get ear mites? i've just been giving moppy a bath and saw she's got a load of black gunk in her ears. i've cleaned it out but i cant seem to find online if it's ear mites or not
 
Black ear wax is normal but some gps get excess amounts.This could attract mites if the ears are not kept clean.Give them a gentle clean every week.Warm olive oil is good.Try not to let the oil drip into the eardrum.
