Thank you all for nice comments!
Darla now has a little foster girl, so Dede, Delta, Dot & Deka have a little foster sister!
Little Dusk was caught by someone's cat, they then took her to the pet shop (not sure why people take find animals to pet shops!) who then told them to take her to the vets I use as they knew one of the vet nurses is a bun person, they called us and so we went and picked up Dusk.
Dusk is VERY weak, she can hardly walk around. We're giving her CC and have taken out Darla & Dusk and watched Dusk suckle off her.
We've taken the girls away from the other adult girls/aunties as a couple of them don't take adding newbies into their group too nicely!
Their cage is a slightly on the smaller side but because we had to make it on the floor we had to add a lid/cat proof as while we trust our cats with the adults; little baby guineas would just be too much of a tease.
Here is their cage;

Darla seems to be treating her as if she was one of her own

Dusk and little Dot (of course Dot! She's always in the pellet bowl!)

All bubs weights as of today;
Deka weighs 107 grams.
Dede weighs 96 grams.
Delta weighs 127 grams.
Dot weighs 64 grams (she's the runt and we've had trouble with her gaining weight)
Dusk weighs 71 grams
Everyday's a Dede Day!
Sadly after a long 'battle' during the (sleepless) night we lost little Dusk, we will be taking her body to get cremated.
But of course Dede & Delta are always more than happy to help make me smile.

Dede and Delta are still going strong!
It's of course hard to tell them apart in pictures, but in person they are so different even though they are alike!
Dede is very loud, and loves to explore - she's a happy little girl who always popcorns. She's often wheeking away.

Delta is quiet one, who likes to keep to herself. She is social but shy.

All are doing well!
Tomorrow they will be two weeks old!

And now they are in their cage which they'll hopefully be staying in which is the bottom 2x5. My male pair is in the top 2x5 and my herd of 7 is in the 4 x 7-ish.

Thank you! (:
They have cozies from the US, Canada, Germany and then ones made here in NZ by me. We have a pretty plain range of fleeces here in NZ, so I got some from the US - would all be much easier if I lived in the US!

The girls are all doing very well!
Dot & Deka had a lovely couple come over to meet them, and they will be adopting the two sisters once the sisters are 6 weeks old.
Dede & Delta are both eating okay, Delta has got the hang of eating any sliced fresh foods and eating hay...she now isn't that fond of having more than 2ml of CC.
Dede as far as I can tell hasn't figured out a way to eat hay or any fresh foods, but with only four bottom teeth it's no wonder she hasn't. Dede happily eats CC, I'm going to start trying to get her to just eat/drink it out of a bowl so she can have it available 24/7
Their new 'pinked' out cage, in the picture is Dede (Back) and Deka (Front)

And a picture with all four sisters in it.

OH my gosh they are so cute. So so so cute. I've forgottten how cute and fluffy babies are....especially with the big ears and feet when their body proportions are still growing....reminds me of my baby Cotton! So many baby Cottons!!!
You have a beautiful cage, by the way. Great theme for the girls!

I have a few pink things so hopefully they'll be able to have the pink theme in their cage after each clean!
Little Dede smelling the air for her dinner; she often tries so hard to sniff and lift up her head that she falls down. You can see the lack of her teeth in this picture, her bottom teeth that are for sure there, haven't started to grow yet.
