Critical care??

It's normal for newborn guinea pigs to lose a bit of weight a day or two after birth. A 4 gram weight loss sounds very reasonable for newborns. If they are active, you see them moving about and you see them nursing I wouldn't feed any critical care. It doesn't sound like they need it to me. They should start picking at mom's hay, veggies and pellets soon and you will see their weight start to increase.

I agree with @sallvy. my four pups were born on the 7th of this month and they are very active. They have started ld nibbling hay, pellets, veggies and drinking water. You should have no worries.

Thank you @sallvy and @guineapiglover
They do appear to be nursing and they are definitely active! They run around all the time. I was wanted to make sure they would be okay

Oops! @sallyvh

No problem!

If you're ever unsure about something it's always best to ask! It sounds like they are doing just fine and they are very cute!
