it is best to start breeding a female guinea pig between 6 weeks to 5 months. it is not recommended to breed a female guinea pig after 5 months because just like in humans after a certain age ther eis complication it goes for the guinea pigs aswell. but if the guinea pig has had its first litter before 5 months then it is okay to continue breed her. hope this helps

I would recommend that your pig be 1 year old before it becomes pregnant but you should never intentionally make your guinea pig pregnant!
