Question

My guinea pig leg staped up as broken he lost bit of muscle mass how can I help him vet sed he a healthy weight but is there any think I can feed or give him to help ? Pet's info: Small Animal | Guinea Pig | Male | unneutered

Just continue to feed him his normal diet. If the vet said he's a healthy weight, I would not worry about it. It's normal there is to be some muscle mass loss around that leg because it's not use in use. Once his leg his healed and he can use it again, the muscle mass will build back up. I hope this helps.
