When I went down to the shed yesterday I found Ernest and Emily, my first ever guinea pigs which I got from a rescue both lying dead next to each other. I have no idea what could have happened, neither appeared ill, they had eaten nearly all of their previous feed, they had water, there were no visible signs of anything on their bodies, their bottoms were clean.
It's such a mystery for them both have dropped down together like that, they were lying snuggled up next to each other so didn't appear contorted in agony or anything (which I assume if they'd been poisoned by something they may have been). They'd only had the same as all my other piggies and the buns but only they *touch wood* as not been yet today, have been affected.
The only other thing we could think was that my husband has overfed them, he'd fed them the last time for me and wonders if he'd put too much in, but would that cause them both to suddenly die at the same time?
Has anyone got any ideas?
I'm flummoxed, fingers crossed it's nothing that could affect my other animals
