Mama Squeak
New Born Pup
Hi. I have 4 female guinea pigs (2 x 2yr old and 2 x 7 month old). They were all getting very large and at the end of Sept (6 weeks ago) my oldest two Biscuit weighed 1380g and Maisie weighed 1260g. ( I weight them every 6 weeks when I cut their nails). So I cut back their veg and cut back their pellets and I also fitted a ramp and gave them the run of the room for exercise. Ive just cut nails and weighed them and the weight loss is worrying ! Biscuit is now 760g (Weight loss of 620g in 6 weeks. Maisie is now 900g (weight loss of 360g). Does this seem a large amount of weight to lose in such a short time. Especially for Biscuit 620g ! Now I worried that Biscuit is underweight. She looks fine, is eating well, is interactive, has shiny eyes, glossy coat, and normal poops. Should I be worried? Any advise appreciated.
