I've had my Guinea Pig for about a month now, but after a week of having her I noticed a patch;bald spot on her nose, a few weeks later hair started to grow back; slowly though and it's still growing back, My question is; does that seem normal? Could she hace been bitten when she was with her cage friends at the pet store? Is she sick? If you are an owner or a vet please help me! Little Miley thanks you!

If she is eating and acting otherwise normal, then I don't think she is sick. You should check then skin where the bald patch was and see if it looks red or flaky. She could have been bitten or "barbered" by a guinea pig at the pet store. If it happens again, I'd suggest taking her to the vet, 2 of my males pigs had bald patches on their backs and they just had a skin problem that was easily cleared up with a shot.
