New Born Pup
Hey there everyone recently got my first guinea pig (2 weeks ago) and have slowly been trying to bond with him while giving him the space he needs to get used to everything. He hates being out of his cage in any sort of way as I give him some time to free roam in an area but he'll just hide, I'm not sure if this is completely normal and is supervising him so he knows I'm there when doing free roam time a good idea or should I give him some more alone time when its free run time?
I'm just quite worried he has been scared or traumatized by a child or something as he's from a pet store.
Also how much itching is a lot? I noticed him scratching quite a bit here and there which seemed more then normal, got the mite/ lice spray for him as a precaution so if he had them I'm hoping he'll be more comfortable, just waiting to see if he scratches much still.
Thanks everyone
