Could she be chattering, I've noticed my girls for no apparent reason start chattering... it's very quiet so you could mistake it with eating. Why they do it I have no clue! mallethead
If I don't give them there veg Wilma chatters!

I don't know if she has anything in her mouth. She's probably Half Guinea Pig Half Hamster. When she Chatters she does it really loudly.

Infairness it sounds like my girlies do the same as your girl, why I have no clue. They also do it randomly well I have them on my lap!
Guinea pigs always have some gunk in their mouths on which they are chewing. AS soon as new piggy is chewing on your lap, you know it's OK.
I've been watching piggies chewing, dozing away, then waking enough to chew, drift away again...
What Joanna talks about is teeth chattering, which is soemthing different - it's when they gnash their teeth together, and it's a sign of aggression/"stay away from me or..."

My guinea pig does that but he only does it before I give him food,I think he's preparing his teeth for the meal!
