Description
Pepsi is the one in front. Pepper at the back. This was taken a while back when we had a VERY sunny day. I put the piggies out in the run and put the greenhouse covering on the top of it (thats the green thing to the left). I went inside for a while and when I came out to check on them I found them sound asleep.Guinea Pig FAct No.1: Guinea Pigs never close their eyes, even when sleeping so that in the wild, predators still think they're awake and don't attack.
NOTICE: From now on, with every picture I upload I will include a FACT on Guinea Pigs in the comments- see what you can learn!

If some guinea pigs are content enough, they will infact close their eyes while sleeping when they know there isnt a threat around.
But this is a cute picture.

Awesome! Thanks!
That Fact was just what the pet shop keeper told me and I've known it ever since. We've got foxes in our area of town, so I suppose there was always a threat...

They always sleep next to each other- for warmth and protection I suppose
