Okay, after doing alot of thinking I decided I had to get them. I am so glad I did. This might be long, but I wanted everyone to know how things went.
When I got there they had them ready to go. I couldnt tell if they had food or water because they have everything emptied. Well, the food they have them on is called Wild Harvest for rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas and other small animals. Thats what it says on the bag. Its that cheap stuff you get at Walmart. They did have an almost full bag of Timothy Hay, dust bath house, with a little dust bath left, plastic igloo house, wheel with the spokes and it was all rusty, glass water bottle, ceramic food dish, and carefresh bedding. That was all they had. There were no chews or anything for them to play with.
When I got them home I washed the cage real good, and threw the wheel in the garbage. They are stuck with their cage for now until I can make them one. I decided to just start giving them the Mazuri food (there wasnt much left of the other stuff to slowly mix), along with Timothy Hay, and filled their water bottle. They started eating right away. I could tell they were hungry. When they seen me put the water bottle on they both ran to it and starting drinking. They were so thirsty I had to put another water bottle on the cage, because they were both trying to drink at the same time. They were drinking for over 15 minutes. I couldnt believe it. I never seen animals so thirsty in my life. It looked like they were dying of thirst. I was looking at them, and got tears in my eyes. I was so upset. How hard is it to feed, and water animals!
The pink white male is smaller than the other one, but he does not have a hunchback. I checked him real close. He is just thin, but he looks good.
They are both in a clean cage with good food, hay, water, and plenty of chew toys.
I will post pictures as soon as they settle in.
Thanks again for everyones help.
