Well, we picked up the two brothers yesterday and they were pretty freaked out. They sat in the hidey house for about 9 hrs or so until I lifted the house to clean up their poo (put it in their poo box, the fedex box). They scampered off towards the food and ate some pellets and drank some water. The lighter cavy seems to be the leader of the two, we'll see. My wife insisted on holding them, so I let her hold them for 10 min or so. When I woke up this morning both of them were in the Y-shaped PVC pipe. I cleaned up some more poo in the corners and put it in the poo box. They definitely ate some hay, the hay that was sticking out last night is now gone . I'm pretty sure they had some more pellets and I think they even nibbled on the afalfa block. However, the water level is still pretty high...between the two of them they drank only about 1-1.5 oz of water. Should I be concerned and is there anything I can do?
