Hi! I'm new to this site and I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to post this but I really need some help as a veterinarian isn't available with COVID-19.
So I bought my pig, Pebbles, for my other guinea pig Parsnip yesterday. (They're both female.)
At first I didn't think anything of it but I noticed Pebble's eyes were more watery than Parsnips, when Pebbles closed her eyes I could see water, but not a lot.
Pebbles is also constantly tired but she had a big day yesterday so I wouldn't blame her. She seems so tired she has trouble keeping both of her eyes open! Not because they're swollen or anything like that, maybe because she's just tired.
I felt the need to ask for help because I can't go to the Vet with this virus.
Then again, I just got her yesterday so I'm looking for a change in behavior or if that's her personality or if her eyes are just like that.
Should I separate them from each other just in case Pebble's is sick so I don't get Parsnip sick?
I almost forgot to mention the crust! There's small amounts of crust that form around her eye. There isn't much of it though. More of it usually appears after she wakes up from a good nap.
Thank you!
