Well i dont know what i did wrong or if i'm just unlucky or something. I posted about needing to go to the vet? well, it was for Reiki, My brown GP. My white GP, Meiki seemed fine. The vet said they are both healthy and stuff just that Reiki has an eye infection maybe from dust so he gave me some eyedrops. Now, i realized, after spending a lot of time observing them, Meiki seems to have one eye smaller than the other. I'm really really worried about this. I checked some pictures on my phone. Turns out Meiki had this problem since the first day i bough him. Help T_T...
this is the right eye which seems fine.

this is the left eye. the one i'm worried about D:

http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/nn194/entrux/photo.jpg

EDITED : The reason why i'm so worried, is because i saw the left eye seem to close totally or until it is very very small. Much smaller than the pic above. The eye actually looks alot worse. But when i took the pic he open eye more gua @@

Boss.. im not sure how to cure this, but my advice please keep the environment clean always. It maybe caused by dust. Keep use eye drops as suggested. All the best, good luck smile.gif

No worries boss, just hand feed him for first 2 - 3 days, select those soft fresh vegetables and fruits (less watery type), while crush the pellets into smaller bites.


In general, and for your piggy's age, they should grow back about 0.3 to 0.5mm every day. Within a week you won't see a difference.


Keep something easy for them to chew their teeth on, especially the inner-lower 2 teeth lol, those anvil stones for sharpening works best.

May I ask, what beddings should we use? Like I read before fleece is also okay but that's for toilet trained GP. Breeder Celect will do?

Most likely it is due to some mites that causing the left outer eye sore, you can see the outer layer of the eye is quite red. This also happened to my dog. Did the vet give you any ointment to apply?

thats the problem. I brought both my guinea pig to the vet. He say the brown one got slight infection. I ask him check both my guinea pigs just in case. He take them up. Look at them a bit then say both healty. Its at the Everside, taman counnaught. i think he kinda didnt care or something.

EDIT : he did give me eye drop. but that was for the brown one's infection. >_> He didnt say anything about the white one. Healthy bulak >_>

My teddy eye like tat b4 .. I use eye wash to solve the problem.. I dip a cotton pad into the eye wash solution and clean his eye.. Now no more problem..
Make sure his hind leg is clean ans his nail are well kept.. Sometimes is becos of the dirt at the nails and got in to their eyes..

Various bedding can be used:
Fleece ( u need at least 2 set rm 15 good of 2x4 feet)
Toilet mat
Old newspaper
Breeder celect
Wood chip
Hay
For fleece and breeder celect u will need to clean / change the bedding often but not the piggy.. If u use toilet mat... U need to clean d piggy often as they will get yellowish on the undercoat fur due to pee stain..

On the safe side, you also can use normal saline to drop into its eye, and then use cotton wipe away. Clean this 2-3 times a day will help.

u use rabbit cage with a solid base or metal grill with a pull out tray below? if the later u cant use breeder celect.. normally they just pour breder celect on the base straight.. no need toilet mat liao if u got a solid base cage. but i felt it a bit of a waste. pour pour like tat.. each month let say pour 8 times.. how long ur supply gonna last.. some more u need to pour the whole base.. i got two cage system, as u c in the attachment, the left 1 is fleece based while the middle and right is toilet mat based with bottom pull out tray. once ur pig is toilet train for the left type, u need only clean the toilet. while if on the middle and right type, u need to clean the floor mat for the pee stain, and the tray for its poo and pee. in order for the tray to last longer i pour in cat liter so the pee are absorbed. so it able to last for 1 week b4 i need to change.

qitto21:
u can buy any tray and pour in breeder celect into it .. and wala.. toilet.. lol thumbup.gif
