New baby not eating

I think the loss of a baby triggers a protective parenting instinct in guinea pigs and they start calling and searching for the lost baby
 
No šŸ’”
I am so very sorry your little one crossed The Rainbow Bridge 🌈
Don't wash any bedding for a while to comfort your boy and switch to daily weight checks. So sad that he has lost two buddies so close to eachother.
Be gentle with yourselves too šŸ’
 
I'm so sorry your baby piggy got called to 🌈 bridge! Hugs. Poor little guinea! Didn't stand
much chance with those 'breeders'. Fly high little one, pain-free in piggy paradise!

I'm sorry I don't know how to help your other guinea but other people have made great suggestions upthread.
 
I am so sorry. You did everything you could for him, it's such a shame.
Maria's Animal Sanctuary, Probus are very helpful. When you are ready to find your little boy a friend it would be worth asking if they can help you, they get a lot of piggies there.
 
How very awful, I’m so sorry you’ve lost him šŸ˜•
Meanwhile the ā€œgreederā€ is lining their pockets… šŸ˜–
Try to keep things as normal as possible, so don’t change any bedding just yet, but keep piggy in his original enclosure with lots of enrichment and tasty snacks.
Maybe a new foraging toy? Keeping to a routine helps too.
Is he eating ok?
