How often should I bathe my Guinea pig?

Answer by  NikkiHutson (37)

Guinea pigs only should be bathed every few months. Washing them too often can dry out their skin. Extra baths should be given if they are excessively dirty or need a special bath like a lice treatment.

Only when really dirty. If a guinea pig has a large/clean enough cage they might never need a bath. If it is really dirty it might be a medical issue.

Only when they get particularly dirty. I used to bathe mine once or twice a year at most. Some never need baths if their cage is kept clean properly.
