Hi my baby guinea pig (fluffy) is only 2 months old and she has just started hoppin about like rabit I know that she isn't popcornin I don't know if her mother (snowflake) has ran into her or hurt her in someway she is drinking and eating as long as you put her ner the food or drinking bottle av touched her on the back legs and she doesn't make a scream noise or that but its just weird why she has started doing this as she never done it before if you could help that would be great

Also she has Diarrhea and she is eating only if you place her at the water bottle or feed dish she has lost weigh and hopping instead of walking, her mum (SNOWFLAKE) is fine she is running about all happy and what ever

I'd take her to a Vet - anything else is just guessing.
Something appears to be wrong with her legs. Could be just about anything.

It sounds like she hurt herself. Did you take her to the Vet?

Is there other animals surrounding your guinea pig? Is there wild animals that can come near them if the cage is outside, there could be either a leg or stomach problem, the stomach could be uncomfortable and she may jump around, or their could be a torn ligement... the mother may have kicked it in the head or leg... but she could be popcorning
Take it to the vet though
