Lethal Piggies - 2 Informative Links

[Stewybus]

We often hear about lethal piggies or just lethals but not a lot of us have seen them or know much about them.

Here's 2 really good links I've just seen on The Guinea Pig Community's Facebook page:-

That's great, I did a search but didn't find that one.

I am intending to speak with an experienced breeder about guinea pig genetics. This is something I am very interested in (not because I am intending to breed, I may add). I have a lot of lethal guinea pigs here at TEAS, and want to gain better understanding of why this happens. We know the basic stuff, but I am sure there is a lot more information I can gain.
