Well, baby guinea pigs come out jumping and playing already, and all you have to do is keep some timothy hay in there cage and a bottle or bowl of water. Oh, and try to keep with they're mother quite a bit until they are about two weeks old. And if you have any babies that you don't want just get them away from the others as soon as you can, so that the mother and siblings don't get too attached. Message me with any other guinea pig or rabbit questions!
My guinea pigs just gave birth to 3 little baby's yesterday April 25,2010. After we got from church we checked on our 4 guinea pigs ( 3 girls 1 boy ) they were all happy the pregnant guinea pig was just in the makeshift house we built for them. Around 5:00pm My dad and I tried to clean our guinea pigs cages, while I was getting the rug my dad suddenly shouted so loud! I went there then when I looked inside I saw 3 cute baby guinea pigs. I researched online and found out that you should separate the male and female ( the one that gave birth ) guinea pigs. We made a new cage to house the baby guinea pigs and there mother.
Under two weeks the pig should be bottle feed. Between three and four weeks the pig should slowly be weaned off the bottle to a dish of milk suppliments, also baby pig feed from a feed lot. Then moved fully onto pig feed after five weeks.
A baby guinea pig is rather easy to look after because the mother will do most of the job.
The mother will feed it and clean it up after birth.
The inly thing you really need to do is just bring them inside if its really hot or cold and occasionally their eyes close up with sleep and if that happens then just wipe it off and open the eye by pulling either side.
But let the mum take care of it the most.
keep them in a cool place under 36 degrees c
feed them fresh food every day and grain from your local pet shop
clean their cage every day you can leave it for up to 3 days

Generally, the mother should be left with the babies to nurse and care for them. Be sure to clean the cage after the birth and hold the babies after they have been cleaned by the mother. Feed the mother regularly so she can keep her strength up to care for the babies.
Leave it up to the mother. Give her a lot of food and water.
Pigs as mammals feed through breastmilk. So the baby piggies have to drink from the mom's nipples for a while until they are strong.

The sow takes care of her piglets in the same manner as any other mammal - mainly by suckling them and caring and guarding her young.
