I have a Two male Guinea pigs I got from a local pet store after the owners decided to give them up, and they been healthy ever since. But lately I've been noticing that one of them (His name is Reese) has been acting strange, and today I noticed that when he took a drink from his water bottle, yellow fluid was pouring out of his mouth, but the other piggie was completely normal. I'm honestly terrified. Anything would help right now.
 
It could be a number of things, but most importantly he needs to see a vet.
He may have dental issues, or sores in his mouth, or a myriad of other problems, that can only really be diagnosed by an experienced vet.
If you are able to tell us where you are based I am sure people on the Forum will chime in and help recommend a good cavy savvy vet.
 
What veg have they eaten before? Guinea pigs often have food leftovers in their mouth, so if you have fed yellow pepper or sweetcorn, then it could have just mixed with the water. Some piggies are messy drinkers or there is something stuck and partially blocking the mouth.

If in doubt, please have your guinea pig checked by a vet. We have got a recommended UK vets locator on the top bar, but it would help if you added your country, state/province or UK county to your details, as we get enquiries from all over the world. Please click on your username at the top, go to personal details and scroll down to location.
