No female mammal, Guinea Pigs included, can get pregnant without a male. However, female Guinea pigs sometimes show unexpected pregnancy because of two simple factors: a) their sex can be difficult to determine when they are young, so it is not unusual that a young male is mistakenly homed with females (or vice versa), and b) they are fertile from a very young age. It is not unusual that the litter is separated into females and males too late.

Hi your guinea pig had babies you had to remove the othe guinea from the cage you thought it was the father despite being sold as female - turns out both are females and the mummy was sold already pre?
This happens often that you get a guinea pig from a pet store or neighbor that is already pregnant. Both females must have become pregnant from two different male guinea pigs or the same male. I would call that pet store or owner to complain about this, as unless you actually have no problem with buying a pregnant sow, the owner should be notified to keep his guinea pigs separate to prevent this from happening. The only good thing to come out of this is that you got more guinea pigs than you paid for.
Can a female guinea pig have babies without a male I found a dead deformed baby in their cage they are both females?
No, guinea pigs need a male around in order to mate. What probably happened is your guinea pig was pregnant when you bought it. This is quite common since guinea pigs are hard to sex when they are young but can however, reproduce at a very young age.
