Hi,
We've just purchased a guinea pig for our daughter from a pet shop but the staff weren't sure of the breed. I think they only sell the more common breeds because it's just a high street pet shop. The other two, which were apparently from the same litter(?), looked American (short hair, how you would picture a guinea pig to look if, like me, you're unfamiliar with the different breeds) but the one we chose had longer hair.
I'm just curious to know if it is American but slightly different looking, or another breed. Is it possible for the same litter to produce different looking guinea pigs?
Can anyone tell from the pictures what breed it is?
Thanks in advance.
