Just got my guinea pig boar today. He’s so little and so friendly. I’m just curious what breed he is and what exactly his color is called. He looks a Himalayan, but he doesn’t have red eyes they are a dark blue. He is 8 weeks old. Oh and his name is Squib 💕 15E7E422-6920-4F5D-B7D1-4CE2A50D8E30.jpg

Very few pigs are purebred. It's possible he's mostly himi with a different eye color.

He looks like a young California pattern piggy. It's one of the newer varieties. They look like himalayan but have dark eyes. The body can also be red or cream. The points come in more as they get older. If he doesn't develop points, he could just be a dark eyed white with dark ears.
