Hello, I have a 3 year old male Guinea pig who I rescued 2 years ago and within my first year of owning him he was always between 1000-1100g but then he dropped to 950g then I managed to gain it back up a
To 1000g and he stayed like that until December 2020 when he first drooped to 980g so I weight again withing 2 weeks and he was at 940g and then weighed again at around end of December and he was 900g and I have recently weighed him and he has dropped to 880g, now he is a happy Guinea pig he still has the same personality as he did when I first got him 2 years ago and doesn't act no different, he eats all his food and doesn't leave anything he gets unlimited pellets, hay and water and he gets a bowl of vegetables at night (vary every night mainly consists of romaine, spring greens, little gem, carrots, celery) and I put some oats on top of his pellets as well at night, I just don't understand what I'm doing wrong could someone help, like is there anything else I could feed or is his weight okay and I'm just being a paranoid piggie mum.
May i add I do have some readigrass will that help with weight gain.
