Just keep giving the eye drops as instructed by the vet. This should help them get the chance to repair.

If u want to post a picture just go to the "upload a file"button --below the reply writing box
&next to the "post reply" button.

Fingers crossed &keep pestering rspca for him if he/you need it :)

See what I mean by the colour? The mark has got smaller tho and he hasn't long had a eye drop
 
My old Jake hand an eye like that,the othe was opake, (2 diffeant ingeries befor l got him) it eventually darkened a bit more than that, but nether eye required any treatment!! and he lived a happy and forfilled life with his wife for at least 5 more years

Poor little thing. Your being a great mum though, his coat is shiny & he looks alert. I know it's easy for me to say, but don't worry to much. He's looking good. It wasn't the older ones fault, we all get techy when we get older. When he's over the eye thing get him done, leave about 8 weeks then get him a girlfriend. He'll love you forever. Are you keeping the boys apart now.
 
Well I've read up about boys getting hormonal around 3 months. It's actually the younger one that is the causing and starting the fights which I am going to keep trying to get them to get along the older boy is fine he isn't bothered and welcomed baggins and his company. I heard giving them baths together is good for bonding? And sitting with them on your lap... if this fails I will probably get both boys done and get 2 females from a rescue centre as I would prefer mature females

Did you try them on neutral ground with hides with 2 entrances & maybe a bit of lettuce etc. ( sorry if I'm going over things you already know)
 
I did the neutral ground and I put them both tin the bath tub together first. And they had 2 of everything. And after a week or more they were fine. The older would hump baggins but that stopped. And they were inseparable after that. But baggins has just turnt into a psycho haha but I think when his eye is better I will try it all again
 
One is from before the eye injury where baggins used to follow the older one which is call bilbo, and I just took the other photo :) enjoy

Tell me about psycho piggies, I've got one about 10-12 weeks old. He won't have lap time, nicks the older ones food & runs up & down the cage at 90 miles an hour, & whoa if the others don't move out his way.
He escaped from the run twice & the C&C cage once. :rant:

He escaped from the run twice & the C&C cage once he didn't get through the bars, he jumped :rant:

It probably will, another souce of information is Guinea pig magazine, you can get it from larger pets at home stores, it's released on the 10th of September. If you go into the store I'm sure that the last mag had a great article about bonding boars. I think it was no 34.
 
Could I buy it online? As my pets at home is small. Thanks. It's annoying that he is going through puberty but I read up that it last a few months depending on the pig
