Hi Debbie! Before I can give you an accurate answer, I'll need some more inforation.

Is the guinea pig on a daily vitamin C supplement?

Does he get 24 hour a day access to timothy hay?

How old is he?

Is he sneezing, have a runny nose, watery eyes, or having trouble breathing?

Does his urine and feces look normal? Any crusty dry feces, or watery feces? Any thick, mucus like urine?

I am NOT, nor do I claim to be, a Veterinarian.
Always check with your vet for any symptoms your pet exhibits.
