i bought my clidren 2 'male' guinea pigs for christams a few years back , only to discover one was actually a pregnant female. They both got on wonderfully and when the litter arrived the Male was very caring towards the babies, he treated them as if they were his own.
No it takes 48 hours to get her pregnant
Raging hormones! Also, homosexuality does exist in the animal kingdom. The "humping" pig is showing his dominance over the other piggy. Keep an eye on them and make sure that they don't fight, as they could hurt each other.
You need to keep any males out of the same cage that a pregnant female is in. You can keep other females with the pregnant one. If you think you may have a problem with the pregnant one, you can cage her by herself.
Its hard to say......but yes it is very likly that your guinea pig is pregnant. You will be able to tell in about 14 days if she is.....her belly will be really big and round
No. There must be a male and a female for the guinea pigs to have offspring.
A guinea hen. A male one is called a guinea cock.
He will mate with both.
As long as you keep the cage clean then, "Yes." Use Aspen chips. You should especially keep it in your room if you only have one, as they are social creatures. If you get two get a male and female, with the male fixed.
When I got my guinea pig, we didn't know she was pregnant, so about a month later, my sister got one that wasn't pregnant. It was a little less that a month after that that my guinea pig had 2 babies. During that time, though, Molly, the pregnant guinea pig, was acting very territorial, and Milly, the non pregnant guinea pig, was staying by herself and not having anything to do with Molly. So make sure that if you put a pregnant guinea pig with a non pregnant guinea pig, that the non pregnant guinea pig is a girl, or else there WILL be trouble.
As long as the male guinea pigs have been weaned they are ready to leave their mother, as you cannot keep a mother with her own male babies, because if they mate the babies that she has will have genetical problems. No you can't keep the two adult mothers together as when the babies are born they will try to feed off both mothers.
No. It is one or the other.
There is only one thing that I could think to have happened. From wherever you got those two from, they might have just become pregnant by another male in the household or facility that they were at before coming to you, and since it was an early stage, maybe you didn't notice right away. I doubt that one of them isn't actually pregnant but just in case, take them to the local vet. One of them might appear to be pregnant, but might not be. And there is a slight possiblity that one of the female guinea pigs is actually a male, if you didn't get them checked out by a vet and only relied on the previous owner's opinion.
