What Could Be Wrong?

[Alexis Riebold]

Hi. 2 days ago I noticed my female guinea pig had a white flake piece in her private area. I removed it with a towel that day. The next day it came back, I removed it again and it came back again today. It also has a bad smell. Every thing else with her is normal. If anyone has an idea of what it could be that would be great thank you

Take her to the vet

Take her to the vet

I think you should wait a little bit so more people can answer before you take her to the vet. I don't know anything about it but good luck and I hope your little girl is OK!

It can be a bit of excreted calcium. Is the urine very smelly and/or milky white? Very strongly and stale smelling urine is a sign of infection, the latter is excess calcium that is excreted the normal way.

To be honest, just a little flake like that is not worrying in itself, only if calcium pees are a daily or near daily occurrance, in which case you want check on your diet.

But if you feel that a vet check will allay your worries, then please have your girl seen!
