satin guinea pigs

[ginnypiggers]

hello ive got two male boars who i beleive to be satins they have a short coat and very shiny hair, ive recently read about osteodystrophy in this breed can anyone tell me what i need to look out for? they are both about 13 mths old and i cannot see any issues with them as yet they both love to eat and seem to work ok though their feet at the back do point out but i dont know if thats normal for guinea pigs in general. I'm really worried about the whole thing really any advice would be great ta.
