Good news is that Guinea pigs are very easy to deal with as babies and they will be eating normal food within a couple of days. Unlike other rodents they don't take very long to develop. They can be separated from mom in about 6 weeks. Be sure that if you don't have homes for them yet that at 7 weeks you put boys in a different cage though!! This is how this kind of things happen, stores don't separate them and you end up taking home a pregnant one :( happend to me once.

Start talking to parents to see if you can find homes for them, Guinea pigs make great pets for young kids, easy to care for, cute, don't make too much of a mess and are very friendly...I'm unfortunately extremely allergic but I do love the little buggers :)
