[Lizzie smith]

Does anybody know anything about something called a grease gland? it always kind of been on my guinea pig and I never knew what it was. I have to sort it out but I'm confused

All piggies have a grease gland. It’s located where the tail would be. You don’t need to do anything with it unless it becomes excessively dirty and has a problem in that area.
Piggies don’t need to be bathed unless there is a medical need to
