Is it balls or not ?

Hey everyone .. So my name is Gio .. I am a new owner of a beautifull boy guinea pig with the name gizmo . Seeing that I am new to this i don't know what is normal and what not .. I recently noticed this on my guinea pig . I hope it is just his testicals developing , but I have to make sure so incase it is not his testicals , that i can get him to a vet .. he is 3 moths old

Yes, testicles are developing.
Does gizmo have a friend to live with? Guinea pigs are highly social and need to be kept in pairs.

Ok. Maybe there is somebody else who might see this post who can help further.
Definitely do keep looking for a suitable boar friend for him. It will benefit him greatly to not be alone. He can only be placed with a sow once being six weeks post neuter.

In the meantime, the link below should provide information on how to care for single guinea pig.
