So i've recently bought two lovely 6 month old piggies.
Bill and Ted! I've always been a film fanatic.
They're just getting used to their new home and me, they're very vocal about it! :)

What I'm interested to ask is i've recently changed their old bedding, and they've become a little more shy!
Is this due to the new smells again?
Any ideas? Very broad I know.

Also I noticed one of Teds eyes is slightly more squinted than the other!
(This comes under health, I know, but its just a general quick question)
Is this crazy talk, or an actual problem? Theres no other residue or discolouration, it just seems slightly more close and inner than the other eye.

Any help is appretiated. x :D
 
It is unusual for them to get more shy than they were, but I found in the beginning with my two guineas that a cage clean was enough to put them off coming out of hiding for a few hours. Whether it was because they were enjoying the fresh hay or getting over the upheaval, I'm not sure! Guineas are very timid in the beginning, it takes them a while to get used to the new routines and part of that is the cage clean. Mine love cage cleaning now, and they also love any rearranging I do in their cage, they get really excited and can't wait to get let back in to play!

As for your piggies eye, I really don't know much about eyes, or the problems guineas may have with them sorry. Perhaps someone will come along who knows a bit more about it, otherwise if you are worried it never hurts to pop into the vets to make sure it is nothing serious.
 
Your both probably right.
I think i'll get in touch with the owners i bought them from too for any info.
Its off to the vets then, lets hope they forgive me!
haha.
