Skinny QUALITY (applicable also to all short haired.cavies) is not all about NOSE (roman or others used to call it round nose), Head, Eyes, Skin, Hair, Teeth, Ears and Color but also the TYPE. The Type should be firm medium body that is muscular, with well-placed broad shoulders, visible wrinkles around neck and legs, with abundant wrinkles preferred. No visible ribs, vertebrae, or prominent hip bones should be showing.

Lakeland and Skinny Carrier is somewhat different, here's why

It’s not good idea to declare a very young pup (e.g., skinny x american parents) as LAKELAND but instead wait for several months until molting process ends and shedding old hair..

There’s high possibility to end up with smooth hair and its final identification is nothing but SKINNY carrier.

As we always pointed out,

“LAKELAND is carrier of a single SKINNY gene BUT not all SKINNY gene carriers are Lakelands.”

Now YOU know the difference 👍

In addition to the information below, there are 2 genes that can cause pink eyes:

A. ‘p’ (pink eye gene)
B. ‘ch’ (himalayan gene), it is the only Dilution gene (C) that dilute not only the color but as well as eyes color.

Note: Each is the most recessive of the loci.

****************************************
Genes in order of Dominance.

Pink Eye gene
P - dark eyes
pg - ruby eyes
p - pink eyes

C (Color dilution) genes.
Note: It dilute red color and it does affect the black color but not as much as red color.
C - full undiluted color (red)
cd - slight dilution (buff cdcd)
cr - strong dilution (dilutes red to white dark eyed)
ch - the strongest possible dilution (dilutes red to white pink eyed and black to Himalayan).

Pink and ruby eyes.

Many guinea pigs are born with pink coloured eyes and many assume that if white then the guinea pig is albino. These white coloured piggies with pink or red eyes are actually called 'pink eyed whites'. They are not albino as they do not have albinism.

Pink eyes like Pickle the lilac in the top picture and ruby eyes like Sven the chocolate coloured in the bottom picture is simply down to lack of pigment in the iris. In short the pink colouration is a reflection of colour of the back of the eyes. Certain coat colours seem to be genetically predisposed to this lack of pigment, colours include white, saffron, lilac, cream, red and himalayans.

Many of these pink eyed piggies struggle to find homes in rescues as people don't like the look of their eyes. But we can tell you with certainty these pigs have just as much character as any other. The only suggestion is that these pigs eyes (and potentially skin in some cases) may be more sensitive to bright lights and sunlight but we have never seen any issues with them.

Next time your adopting a new friend, consider a pink eyed pig. We love them. ❤️

Breeding Protocol of Skinny Guinea Pig

Careful breeding is required in order to produce healthy pup(s). Breeder should be aware in developing healthy line as well as producing healthy pup(s). It is absolutely necessary to breed Skinny guinea pig, every other generation, to a Lakeland or carrier to ensure the immunity gene is not weakened.

Hairless guinea pigs.

Although they may look so cute or ugly (depending on your point of view) hairless breeds of guinea pigs such as skinnys, baldwins and werewolfs are not first time pets. We would personally never recommend one without prior experience and knowledge of guinea pigs and would not advocate buying one.

These breeds are a genetic mutation which means they do not grow hair as they should do and have part of the Rex breed gene within them, which is why many of the breeds which have some hair on is the course Rex hair.

These breeds need extra consideration and care. Their personalities are not suited to all and require a lot of work to tame and handle. These breeds also need to eat more to maintain thermoregulation (normal body temperature). This means they also poo more. They are often more active and easily stressed. Other problems with hairless breeds that have been documented and experienced by owners are:
- higher risk of skin infections such as fungal disease
- higher risk of skin wounds/trauma from enclosure or other guinea pigs
- higher risk of developing pododermatitis (bumblefoot)
- immunodeficiency problems
- higher risk of eye trauma and ulcers from hay
- risk of sunburn
- cannot cope with lower temperatures well when a haired breed would be okay
- may live shorter lifespans (although laboratory hairless breeds have been reported to live as long as normal breeds which may be down to better husbandry in some cases)

Please think twice before considering a hairless breed.
