Sure it can! Some just take a few more day to open their eyes. If it goes past 18 days then I'd start to be worried. Some times they are open just a bit but so slightly that we just can't notice.
Be pacient and they will open soon enough.

Definately. It's not un-common for puppies to develop differently than others, obviously. It takes somewhere between 7 days to two weeks, however, this is varied depending on the puppies themselves and the breed. I agree with Golden, if it's longer than 18 days, consult your vet.

yea it can dont worry when they are ready to open them they will they aren't going to keep their eyes closed forever just keep a eye on them and if after a while they still havent opened them take them to the doctors for a check up.

some pups do take longer this is an average.
I would have them checked if it goes past 18 days.
Also make sure they are crusted shut for something like eye infections.
