My guinea pigs had weird brown stuff hanging off his rear and it looks weird. It is attached to his hair. I don't know if I should cut it off.
Thanks for any help.

Hi and welcome

Please check your boy's grease gland for being overactive. Otherwise he may have sat in his own mess of poos and pees.

Here is more information on the grease gland (with pictures) and tips how to care for it: Boar Care: Bits, Bums & Baths
