Here's Racer and Bear's grease glands being cleaned! I also give them a regular bath.
A male guinea pig's grease gland should be cleaned about every 3 months. It makes guinea pigs very itchy. If you see your pig scratching a lot, it's possibly their grease gland!

Thanks to guineapiggoddess1 for your video on "how to clean your male guinea pig's grease gland" video! Here's her "how to" video- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FT_z6b3ODFQ&feature=mh_lolz&list=FLx8w...

  • I use coconut oil. Just rub it on with a cloth and it takes the grease off right away!

  • @skinnypigs1 Does it really! Oh wow! I am definetly going to try that sometime! Thanks! :D

  • @petlover324 I use it to get the oily skin build up off Barnabys back as well.

    It works great and would be easy for you if you don't want to bath your piggy and just felt like cleaning the grease gland only.

  • @skinnypigs1 I see. Yeah, I bet the pigs would prefer a wipe down with coconut oil then a bath. :D

  • Racer and Bear are the cutest guinea pigs I've ever seen! ;3

  • @creativekatherine Haha. Thanks!

  • @TheGuineaPigHelpers3 The grease gland is the caudal gland,it is used for scent marking in boars. It is located on the rump, if you follow the line of the back down towards the bottom, you will feel it around where the tail should be.

  • OOOMMMEEEGOOOSSSHHH dont let Racer fall! haha I luv this song you should purposfully give him a mohawk all the way down that would be a cute picture!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @mxbarb7 Nope. I have to get the cubes and coroplast for it. My mom should be taking me to get the cubes sometime this week and the coroplast I'll probably get this or next weekend. :D No worries! It should definetly be finished in a couple of weeks!
