If the baby's eye is closed due to a crusty looking substance, then get a clean, soft rag or cloth, moisten it with warm water, and gently rub in a circular motion. If anything else seems to be the problem, such as a swollen or discolored shut eye, contact an available small animal vet, because these symptoms COULD be the signs of something wrong with the eye itself.
What else can I help you with?

Are all calico guinea pigs female?
The majority of calico guinea pigs are female, any male guinea pig who is calico is a mutation. I'm not sure how well I can explain this, but basically there are color alleles (not sure if I spelled that right) on the X chromosome, so its a sex-linked trait. Because females have an extra X chromosome, One X chromosome needs to be shut down in every cell. If its not, it can cause serious problems, so the female body has safety mechanisms in place to assure its shut down and converted into a Bar-Body. Males only have one X and one Y chromosome, so they have the correct chromosome # and nothing needs to be shut down. So, back to the color allele on the X chromosome, Males receive 1 of those and Females receive 2. Now, If an organism, such as a human has the wrong chromosome # It can cause killer things like Cri du chats, or something less harmful like down syndrome. Its not as serious with the sex chromosomes (ahh! Sorry about all of this back round info, its kinda hard to understand without knowing other stuff first) So, Lets say that one X chromosome contains the orange coat allele, and the other contains the black coat allele. There is a different allele on a different chromosome that provides base coat, lets say the phenotype is white. As the embryo is developing at random points the X chromosome is shut off. The X cells are shut off randomly, but in patches depending how far along development is. The sooner the X chromosome is shut off, the larger the patch will be. So if x chromosomes are shut off earlier, the guinea pig has smaller patches because the already shutoff cell don't replicate as much. The exact same things occurs in females of all species. Hopefully that's clear enough! Males shouldn't be calico because they only have one X chromosome, and the Y chromosome mostly contains stuff like "how to be male" Sorry that this is so long! I hope its clear enough for you!

Is it bad if your guinea pig doesn't purr when you pet it?
well, not necessarily. She might just be falling asleep cause she enjoys being pet (guinea pigs only close their eyes for a few minutes when they sleep, then, their eyes pop back open. sometimes, their eyes dont shut at ALL) or, she may be scared or nervous.

Do guinea pigs need a night light to fall asleep?
Guinea pigs are native to South America and so can survive heat. But for tame guinea pigs it's best to make sure that you have an indoor cage away from direct sunlight, with a shady spot and somewhere dark to hide. If you have a run, don't put them out in the middle of the day because they will overheat. Try shady spots, putting a cover over the run or waiting for a breeze.
