Answer 3

It really depends on their personality. But, their known to use squealing when they're bored or want food. But really, personality seems to be the key ingredient.

Answer 4

My sons would squeak when he wanted food. Or even when I would come home with groceries and he or she heard the bags rattle. He or she knew I had fresh spinach for him:)

Answer 5

Maybe its scared.Or they just normally squeak like that.

Answer 6

Guinea pigs squeak and squeal a lot.

It doesn't matter male/female.

They squeak for food, water, attention, and treats, or just because you walked in the door

(I have three and they always greet me when I enter my room [: ).

Males usually have gigantic balls. :\ It kinda looks like they have a big butt... but really... it's their balls. -_-; Some don't have big balls though.

My boy is really quiet and skittish while my girls are really outgoing and sometimes bitchy. [:

Answer 7

If she has been squeaking while she is in her cage then she probably wants food, water, or she's lonely and wants attention. My guinea pig momo does that and the older one stanley has learned to also bite on the cage door which is annoying for me so therefore, more succesful. If you treat her every time she does a specific task, she will learn that is how she gets it. If she's squealing when your picking her up, then she is uncomfortable and is telling you to stop. To hold her have one hand grasp her right below her arms and one hand holding her bottom. Make sure she is close to you and not out in the open; guinea pigs tend not to like that. So if you already knew this sorry! I just want the best for you and her! :)

Answer 8

Making noises is perfectly normal for guinea pigs. They're very talkative little critters.  

Answer 9

If its kept on its own it could be because its a little bit lonely and wants somebody to "talk" to it. Squeak back. I have two guinea pigs and they will have "squeak conversations" with me frequently. Its how I got them used to me when they were tiny babies.
