Hi
One of my guinea pigs, Jellybean, always has wet fur on her rear end, unlike the other, who is always clean. However, I have checked her over and nothing looks out of the ordinary, she just seems to make a mess of herself! Is she ok, or is there something I should be concerned about?
Thanks ?/

it could just be where she/he has lay down on ether wet hay or in her wee ...mine do this somtimes ! but i would keep an eye on the pig just incase it is something more serous
 
One of mine sleeps under the water bottle LOL could yours be doing this?
 
I found this happened to one of mine when I used the small igloos that have a plastic base, I now only use the larger ones with no bottom
 
one of mine gets this sometimes. how do her poos look, as long as they look good and not wet she might have just sat in a wet patch. if it keeps happening, or she is very wet let us know.
 
aww lol she's probably just as very lazy piggie, who don't like cleaning herself :P
 
everything else looks really normal to be honest! I guess she must just like sitting in the messy patches -typical ;-)
