    They could have upper respiratory problems. Please bath their eyes with warm water and if you can find boric acid at the pharmacy, a teaspoon in a glass of warm water will help greatly. Keep them warm and make sure they are nursing. They need the queen's antibodies to keep their immune system going. I am surprised that you hadn't taken them to the vet to be looked at.
