How to take care of a Pot Bellied Pig.... simple.
when it gets ready
I don't think there is a test to tell if a guinea pig is pregnant, but a pregnant guinea pig will not let you rub its stomach. If you are still unsure, take your guinea pig to a vet.
Take it to the vet.
Your thumb has its own pulse so it shouldn't be used to take your pulse.

Count pulse
False, because the apical pulse is the heartbeat and is heard with a stethoscope. The sphygmomanometer is used to take the pulse on the arm.
If you mean how long do you take a pulse for? A Mintute.
carotid pulse sight
No, because your thumb carries your pulse which might be confused with the client's pulse.

when do you take a minature pig off the bottle
When taking a pulse you need to pay attention to the rate of the pulse (how fast/slow?) and the quality of the pulse (how weak/strong?).
Take a pulse for a maximum of 10 seconds.
