I love my boy very much but he seems to smell very strongly and it isn't terribly nice for anyone holding him. The girls don't smell so I am guessing/hoping it is a boy thing. I mentioned it to the vet and he said it was a boy thing.............

So shall I give him a bath?

cos that will be fun! rolleyes
 
I hae heard that boys can smell musty, however i have a boy and 2 girls and non of them smell atall, you coud give him a bath and then give him a good dry afterwards!
 
All my boys smell delightful, but then again, they're all castrated!

Bathing him won't hurt - gorgeous guineas do a "just for boars" shampoo with a slightly more manly scent :)
 
Ahh smelly boys! Mine do stink at the moment, but it's their smell rather than them being dirty or something :) I have found mine didn't really smell when the weather was cooler as well xox
