(((I have a vet appointment tomorrow at 1:20)))
My guinea pig had babies 6 days ago. A few days after they were born, 2 out of the 3 had eyes that were cloudy. Yesterday morning the one with the cloudiest eyes had one eye that was almost shut. I went online and researched, and took a syringe and washed it with boiled and cooled water. This morning (after doing this 2x yesterday and once this morning) they are remarkably better. 2 out of the 3 however still have a cloudy look to the eye but much improved.
I was reading that they can be irritated by hair, and these pigs are different looking! Short, very coarse, CURLY hair.
I am hoping this can be fixed, and maybe an antibiotic drop is all they need!
Does anyone have any experience with this?
