How do i let the male and female guinea pigs mate?

Answer 1

This is partly how guinea pigs express their dominance.

They are both fighting for the 'Alpha' position.

This is why it is generally not a good idea to have 2 males living together.

Answer 2

whenever they can! lol but the female can only get pregnant when she is in oestrus (however you spell it!!) which is every 15-17 days and she will only accept the male for a few hours during this time.

Answer 3

To get your guinea pigs to mate, it is kind of hard at first. When introduce the male and female you should put them in a place they both have never been in, like a brand new cage where neither of them have soiled in, a bath room floor, or a large table. Now to answer the question: How do you get your guinea pigs to mate? If your guinea pigs get used to each other and don't fight you put them together and leave them alone. If you don't want them pregnant, and you only put the male and female together every once in a while, it depends for how long you leave them together.

To know if your female is pregnant, wait for about a month and a half. If she starts getting unusually fat (large belly, small head), she is most likely pregnant. take the male out if he's not out all ready. When the babies are born, if the male is still in the cage with the female, the male could distract the female away ROM concentrating on the new born babies and some could die. When my female had babies, the male was still in the cage, 2 of the 4 babies died.
