Hi

This might sound weird, but well.. I have a guinea pig, I think it was
yesterday or day before that when I noticed a poop hanging from his bottom
half-way out. Today when I picked him up, he had also a poop hanging there.
Could this be a problem? Digestion or bowel problem perhaps?
I don't feel like carrying him around with poop hanging out there!

He could be constipated, give him some fresh green stuff in his diet. Also,
the shop bought cotton-woolly type bedding can cause bowel impaction, always
use natural materials for bedding, hay, straw, wood shavings etc.

Ok, thanx.
I thought it might have something to do with if it got cold or something..
