Guinea Pig

[Alicia Stewart]

Hi everyone just needing some advice does anyone know why one of my Guinea pigs has like a bald parting down her back like down her spine why is there a parting there and no fur ?

I’m afraid we couldn’t guess - there could be any number of reasons. The best thing is to have a vet check her out.

I hope she is ok

Hi and welcome

Do you have a long-haired or a short-haired guinea pig? Has the parting always been there or is it new?

Could you please post a picture. Please use the Attach Files button under your post when you write it. We are not part of social media and not everything is supported on here but this way always works.

Without any further information we can unfortunately not even start to guess.

Hello and welcome to the forum. Has she always had this parting or is it new? Does the skin look red? As said above please post photos if you’d like and a vet appointment is probably needed if you are concerned.
