Hi all.
I got 2 guinea pigs a week ago from a lady who rescued the mom from a parking lot.
They both have red eyes. One is sandy colored with white patch and the other is grey/sandy color with white on the half of the body and red eyes.
Being a beginner, I wasn't really aware that most pigs have brown eyes -
Is this ok? Are they healthy?
I know they can see me! Because they can definately see when I have a treat in my hands!
Please - let me know!
Here are my girls! - they are sisters!

Red eyes just lack pigment causing them to look red. They can see fine. I think red eyed pigs are very pretty.
 
Some guinea pigs just have red eyes. They are adorable, what are their names?
 
My white piggie has pink eyes. :)
 
Your pigs are gorgeous, I have a piggy with the same coloration. It's my favorite color combination on a pig. They're considered to be lilac (the darker color,) golden brown, and white with red eyes (although his eyes don't look very red in this photo!) The red eyes are totally normal though :)

Here is my Dexter

They are adorable!
 
WHEW! Thats great. They are healthy, friendly little girls. Their names are SANDY & OPAL (crazy haired girl)
We have had them for less then a week and they are really getting used to us. They are sweet little pigs!
 
Dexter is so cute. He shares the same type of hair colors as my girls. *although in the picture the color may look a little different* He is beautiful. With his coat - is he considered semi-long? what would you call his coat type/length. My girl SANDY has mid length hair on her body and I thnk you can see it better in this picture - she is 11 weeks old and I hope it will grow in like Dexter's. TOO CUTE!
