Male guinea-pigs can start mating when they are as young as 3 weeks old, although it is recommended that you make sure they been bred by six months old to make them a breeder.
Female guinea pigs can start having babies when they are three months old, however, it is highly recommended that you don't mate them when they are over a year old, due to pelvis bone fusion. A female guinea pig any older than a year old will have a dead litter before she will be able to produce a live litter.
Female guinea pigs are able to get pregnant as soon as 3 weeks. That's why it's important to separate them from males around that time.
10 weeks, but it is best if you want to breed them to allow them to get pregnant at 12 weeks
Guinea pigs are a rodent and they are made to breed quickly. A guinea pig can breed at a young age of 3 months old. As soon as babies are eating on their own, the males should be separated from their mother. The males will mate with her if they get a chance.
Guinea pigs can reproduce when they are as young as four weeks, but this is not good for them. If you have baby males and females in together, they should be separated by then.
It is healthiest to breed your female guinea pig between the ages of four and seven months. DO NOT wait until they are older than eight month to breed them for the first time as the pelvic bones may be fused together by then, instead of being flexible enough to allow for easy delivery.
guinea pigs can be as young as three week old
The male guinea pig is ready at 8 weeks old.
about 4-5 wheeks.
They can be pregnant but it is not fair for a baby guinea pig to have to hold up to 8 guinea pigs. There is a very high chance they will die. I had a guinea pig that was pregnant when I got her(she was 14 weeks when she had babies) and she had 2 babies and tey all survived.
i have 2 15 months old female guinea pigs can i introduce a new baby guinea pig
It is almost definite that they will fight, but i would suggest that you try it, but make sure you supervise them just in-case.... GOOD LUCK..... x
Female guinea pigs usually don't have babies until they are about 4 months old.
I think not all guinea pig have big ears, guinea pigs do have big ears when they are about a week old and it stays like that when they get older..

Most can if they are old enough
3 months old to be exact - pretty sure
they can become pregnant/mate as early as 3 weeks after they were born.
Approximately 10 days.
theree months to five months
Male guinea pigs have been known to make a female pregnant when they are only a month old. But usually the male becomes fertile and wants to breed around 3-6 months of age. If you are planning on breeding, I suggest not to because the risk that the female will die giving birth or that she will give birth to "lethals" (babies without eyes or have crooked teeth) is high.
no because a female guinea pig needs to be more than 6 months to fall pregnant Yes, the female guinea pig can become pregnant at 2 months so it is possible.
guinea pigs can live up to 8 years old i should know i have had like 8 guinea pigs!
Yes,he should be separated from the mother as well as the babies because he can cause serious problems to the babies such as pregnant among baby Guinea Pigs,injuries,etc. When the babies are at two weeks old,you should distinguish between male and female baby Guinea Pigs and separate the male baby Guinea Pigs from the females.You can put the male babies with their father and the baby females with their mother.
