Keep the water cold and fresh. Foul water will kill them very easy. So what are you feeding them ?

 

[smily sam]

i no this isn't on topic but my guinea pig had babys yesterday here are some pics:happy:

I always change babies water with water out of my adult tank. It's a lot less likely to contain any 'nasties'.

Try not to sweat any deaths you have right off the bet. There are some genetic combinations which are not conducive to life, so it's probably not something you did. Although one time I accidently eviscerated a baby with a turkey baster. I felt terrible.
