Hi All,
My guinea pig gave birth three days ago to three healthy babies and one who died either in childbirth or right after (we woke up in the morning and saw the dead baby lying on the floor of the cage :sad. The three live ones were totally healthy and fine. Today I noticed that one of the babies is not opening his eyes. He had his eyes fully open the past two days, but today he has his eyes tightly closed as he walks, eats, etc. I don't see any pus that might indicate infection. The other two babies have eyes open as normal. Should I be worried?
