so my guinea pig was producing white stuff from their anus but when i’ve done a search, it’s said it’s something a boar produces so i’ve decided to definitely check their genders( was told they were females when i got them). and i think the one producing the sticky stuff may be a boar but the other one seems to be female

is there anyway i can tell the difference properly without making a mistake
 
The link below will help. Girls have a fleshy built inside the slit. With boars you can feel the penis ridge.

Sexing Guide
 
Have they been living together? If so, it's pretty likely that you'll have babies on the way if you have a boar right enough. You can post pics of their bits and we can try to help you to sex them. X
 
If you are struggling to sex them then please post well lit, clear close up pictures and members can try and help. If you are struggling to get photos or want a quicker answer then I would pop along to a cavy savvy vet for a check up and sexing. Your piggy could be female and if there is white stuff coming out of her anus then it could indicate an infection
