Sneezing and bold spots

[Bettie&pixie<3]

I noticed that my baby piggie pixie has been sneezing a lot. At first I though it was nothing but it's been 2 weeks now and I was wondering if it's something normal or something wrong. Also both my piggiese have bold spots behind thier ears does everyone have that too?

Thank you all in advance.

Most guinea pigs have bald spots behind their ears, some bigger than others.

If your pig has been sneezing for two weeks you'd better take her to the vet. She may have an upper respiratory infection.

What about coughing? Is it normal for pigs to cough? Precious coughed last night, it sounded really cute though. And she coughed about 3 weeks ago too.

Do you mean coughing or choking?

[guineapiggoddess]

Coughing, she wasn't eating anything. So I believe it was a cough.

Mine sneezes about once every two days. Other than that, though, she has been fine. Normal eating, stays active, cuddles, no biting...

Bold spots are normal. Precious' is behide the whole back if hte ear, Goofballs is only near the bottom of the ear. It's all diffrent. No pig is the same

My piggie LOVES it when I scratch behind her ears. She purrs... whenever I hear a pig sneeze I say "God bless you", just as you would for a person.

LOL thats funny, why didn't I think of that!

My girls sneeze but they stopped, recently I think they started farting I don't know maybe I"m just hearing things huh?
