I just checked my guinea pigs over and one of them has a teat like spot under his back leg. I have only had them for 2 weeks and don't know what it could be. Can anyone help?
 
It could be just that-a teat. Boars have them too :) Can you possibly get a picture and post it here and we can tell you for sure?
 
I have tried but it says that they will onlytakes 128kb and the photos are nearly 400kbs. Do you know what else I could try to post te pics.
 
:-\ not sure, are you using photobucket? sounds like just the normal nipple O0 but if you work out how to post a pic, we'll have a look and be able to tell you for certain O0
 
I felt under my other guinea pigs leg and he has a nipple there also. So I think it is okay.

Thanks for all your help.
 
Yes! As guinea pigs are mammals the boars have nipples too (just like humans) so hopefully you found a "teat" under his other leg too!
 
Yep, i found the other nipple today, it has only just started to show, so they must grow as the piggys get older.
