My guinea pig leela that i rescued the end of last year seems to be hotter than the rest of my pigs and her skin has always seemed very pink.

she only has a thin layer of fur on her belly not bald and no bald patches .

Any ideas?
 
Hmm, I have no idea. Just thought I'd say I hope she's ok. Has it always been that way or is it just recently? Does she seem well in herself? It may just be her, but I haven't got a clue so don't know what to suggest.
 
ever since i got her she has been like that normal in every other way she is like a little hot water piggy
 
Ah bless. As long as she's drinking and not showing signs of dehydration I wouldn't worry too much especially if it's nothing new. Does her skin look sore?
I have one piggy, Spike who often has cold ears when none of the others do!
 
In guinea pigs ,the ears are a way of getting rid of excess heat from there body, my piggie elvis gets hot ears sometimes too. I hope that helps :-)
