Question

My guinea pig jumps and twitches at the same time what does it mean?

Answer 1

its broken

Answer 2

That is called 'popcorning', and it's something guinea pigs do when they are so excited they cannot contain it anymore! Young guinea pigs are more likely to popcorn, but as they get older some do continue to popcorn on occasion. Often you may see them popcorn when they were recently fed, are taken out for playtime, or are put into a clean cage. Other times they just get excited for seemingly no reason!

Answer 3

It's popcorn time!  Popcorning is an expression of happiness or excitement.  I have one pig that does it when I give them fresh hay, and one that does it whenever he gets a new shoe box or tunnel to explore.  Or peppers.  He loves peppers!

It means he's having a good time.

Answer 4

your guinea pig is probably "popcorning" Popcorning is what guinea pigs do when they get excited or happy. Popcorning shows that your guinea pig is happy and excited!

Answer 5

It might mean he's a guinea pig.  Guinea pigs often respond to things by jumping and twitching, but as I don't know the circumstances or any other information, I can't say for sure whether it's just normal "I'm excited/scared" behavior or a sign of a problem.

Answer 6

If you piggy makes noise while doing that, it's probably "Popcorning". It's basically like a guinea pig happy dance, in a way.
