My guinea pig has recently even getting green things above her little nostrils. I her assumed they were small boogers. Is this normal? Do guinea pigs get colds?
 
They get Upper Respiratory Tract Infections (URI's) which can be fatal if not treated by a vet with strong antibiotics asap. Get them to a vet as soon as possible. I hope she gets well soon!
 
They can get upper respiratory tract infections. Is she exhibiting any other symptoms? Sneezing? Heavy breathing? Weight loss? I would keep an eye on her
