My Guinea Pig is resting fluffed up

[Anshi]

Hi! So I'm new here and right now I'm on the verge of crying my guinea pig(PICO) is pooping a little and his poop is semi-solid and yesterday from his poop something sticky transparent came out although he is eating well... He loves cucumbers but I searched up over here and on google, it says maybe diarrhea because of overfeeding cucumbers I'm not sure what to do... Tomorrow I'm taking him to the vet! But right now what should I do I'm only feeding him carrots and some pellets and nothing greeny plus I don't have hay rn!

This is happening with him for the first time he is not showing any signs of pain but is acting a bit cranky and all fluffed up.. He is laying down right now!

I’m sorry to hear this.
Given your location I can appreciate that it is difficult to access vet care.

What I can say is that carrots should not be in the diet as a main veg. They too sugary and not healthy. They should only ever be an occasional treat and only in very tiny amounts and too many carrots (and in fact too much of any veg) with no hay is likely to cause digestive problems. They need to fibre from hay to keep their digestion balanced.
I know getting hold of hay isn’t always easy in your location though.

Being fluffed up is a sign of being in pain.

Could you perhaps find some grass instead of hay?
You could mush up his nuggets and syringe him some.
Good luck at the vets tomorrow!

Good luck at the vets. I hope it’s something easily treatable.
