male g/pigs can breed as soon as they are 4 weeks old but its good to wait until they are 6-7weeks before starting. Same with females they can breed as soon as they are 5-6weeks old but again wait until they are 7-8weeks old before breeding with them.

How old do birds have to be to breed?

This varies from species to species. Generally the smaller birds mature quicker and can therefor breed at a younger age. Some finches can successfully breed at 6 months of age and some of them should be one year. Budgies should be about a year of age, but they could be a couple of months younger and still have healthy babies. Lovebirds, cockatiels and similar sized parrots should be 18 months before breeding. Amazon parrots, African Grey parrots and similar sized parrots mature and can breed at about 4 years of age. The large macaws will be 5 years or more before they will successfully breed. Any of these species can breed at younger ages and may even have healthy babies, but breeding younger, more often produces small, unhealthy babies that may not survive.
